In the past I have said to people 'how cool would it be if you could fire bombs FORWARD, instead of backwards?' I mean, even in the old video games, space bombs were dropped forward (but were slow moving).
So what if the bombadier card actually says that you could use the 2 template to drop a bomb forwards from your ship?
I admit, that might be a bit broken for an upgrade that has been spoiled to cost only 1 point (I think something like what I am describing above might cost 4 or 5), but I think an upgrade like that would be really fun to play with.
