-            Play under whatever name you like, but know that what you say and
-            do at the table becomes part of its lasting record.
+            An online game is written to this table's ledger move by move, table
+            talk included, and kept: a finished game can be replayed from above
+            or through a wizard's own eyes, and any turn can be shared by link.
+            A shared replay shows that turn's moves and the sharing wizard's view
+            of the board — never anyone's hand. A game passed around one device
+            stays on that device; only its counts reach the tally. Play under
+            whatever name you like, and know that what you say and do at an
+            online table is part of its record.

-        <h3>What the digital table does differently</h3>
-        <p>THE THUMB OF GOD is a divine meteor. Aim it at a square; the die
-          drifts up to two squares in a random direction, then every token in
-          and around the landing square — objects, treasures, creatures, even
-          wizards — is flung to a random nearby square. Walls mean nothing to
-          falling cardboard, and there is no counteraction.</p>
-        <p>An ILLUSION WALL is real only to those who believe it. Its creator
-          sees through it from the start; everyone else sees stone until they
-          walk into it or see through it, and the maze remembers each
-          wizard's verdict separately. An untested illusion shimmers faintly.</p>
-        <p>An ambush (OPPORTUNITY FIRE) is set with the attack card it will
-          fire and a trigger of your choice: an opponent entering your line of
-          sight, coming within one square, or picking up any treasure. It
-          springs on their turn, out of yours.</p>
-        <p>BUTT-HEAD's ram is measured as the shortest walk through the
-          corridors from where you cast it to your victim's square, on the
-          legs you have this turn; you cannot pad the blow by taking the
-          long way round, and the goat lands on the victim's square. There
-          is no ceiling. MAD DASH doubles the whole allowance, NUMBER cards
-          included, so a well-placed goat can ram for sixteen.</p>
-        <p>Spells cast at a FILL SQUARE WITH SLIME lodge in the gel, and a
-          slime may hold several. They go off one at a time, oldest first:
-          each wizard who pushes in springs one spell, the next wizard the
-          next. The card says only that each spell goes off once; the queue
-          is this table's reading. A slime shows how many it holds, and a
-          peek names them, since every cast into it was seen.</p>
-        <p>Clockwork wizards — the automatons — play from the same redacted
-          view a human seat gets and obey every rule; a tier changes what
-          they draw and know, never how correctly they play.</p>
