What it does

On reveal: +2 Power to the next card you play.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 2 RAM to play and brings 3 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 1997

A film industry data site run by Nash Information Services, which tracks box office takings systematically.

Bruce Nash launched it in 1997. The company also does research and forecasts the earnings of film projects. In March 2026 it announced a rebuild on new infrastructure.

In 1997: Launched this year by Bruce Nash.

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.
