What it does

On reveal: -3 Power to the strongest enemy card here.

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

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

Tech cards bend the rules: more RAM, cheaper cards and patches that weaken the other side.

The site, in 2000

A Russian website of biographies of Heroes of the Soviet Union, Heroes of Russia and other holders of the country's top honours.

Called Heroes of the Country in Russian. Volunteers started it in March 2000 and ran it non-commercially. By 1 January 2022 it held 31,845 articles and more than 25,000 photos of monuments and memorials.

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.
