What it does

On reveal: +3 Power to the next card you play.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 1 RAM to play and brings 0 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.

Media cards broadcast Power to your other lanes.

The site, in 2001

A Russian news agency that publishes its reports online, with main offices in St Petersburg and Moscow.

Its website, rosbalt.ru, opened on 29 January 2001. In October 2013 a Moscow court ruled its media registration invalid, and in March 2014 the Supreme Court of Russia overturned that decision.

Dot-com era, 1999 to 2002. Glossy buttons, big money and a bug called Y2K. Some of these companies were worth billions for about a fortnight.

The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
