What it does

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

On reveal happens once, when the card flips.

It costs 4 RAM to play and brings 5 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 2008

An internet-based micronation, represented mainly by its website, whose citizens call themselves Witizens.

It was founded on 14 August 2008. In 2009 it issued a gold coin, the Wirtland Crane, billed as the first gold coin made by an internet-based entity.

Web 2.0 era, 2003 to 2008. Rounded corners, reflections and drop shadows. Everything was social, and everything was in beta.

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