It costs 4 RAM to play and brings 8 Power to its lane. You get 1 RAM in round 1, 2 in round 2, and so on.
Creators cards are strongest on their own, and some only get going late.
The site, in 1997
A long-running webcomic by Pete Abrams that follows Torg, Riff and Zoë through bizarre parody adventures.
Started in 1997, it is one of the oldest successful webcomics, and Abrams was among the first cartoonists to make a living from one. By 2012 it had hundreds of thousands of readers.
Boom era, 1995 to 1998. Netscape, frames, hit counters and animated envelopes. Everyone had a homepage, and every homepage was under construction.
The Long Tail: The niche, the local and the specialist. Most of the web, really.
