Sometimes the cards tell a story

alexxkaySo I was just playing a game of the new electronic version of Sentinels of the Multiverse. Fanatic, Bunker, and Absolute Zero, versus Advanced Omnitron in Insula Primalis. This was *not* a fortuitous group of heroes in the circumstances, but the game had an amusing aspect.
Round 1: Bunker plays Adhesive Foam Grenade, preventing the Environment from playing cards this round.
Round 2: Bunker plays another AFG.
Round 3: Bunker plays a *third* AFG (he wasn't drawing anything more useful).
Round 4: Bunker is out of AFGs, so maybe now some of the lush, primeval wildlife will come out? Fanatic plays End of Days, which, at the beginning of the Environment turn, pretty much destroys *everything*. The environment does get to play a card at long last, though: Obsidian Field. So much for lush wildlife.
Round 5: Environment plays a second Obsidian Field.
Round 6: Environment plays River of Lava. Apparently, this movement is considered a provocation; Omnitron immediately responds by playing Terraforming, which destroys all Environment cards. We don't live to see the next Environment draw.
Moral of the story: superhero battles are really bad for the environment :-)
