Just started experimenting with bombs and mines. I wish the damage/effects were listed on the upgrade cards instead of the information card inculded in the expansions. New players unfamiliar with a bomb or mines effects have questioned their effects at games which slows everything down and has involved the TO once so far.

Watched a match with 3 Tie Punishers using clusters mines, seismic charges and conner nets a week or so ago. Very effective.

Seismics,

5-7 damage (sometimes including - but not always - friendly fire) for 2pts, hell yes!

It really depends on what ship I'm putting them on. PS8-10? Proton bombs baby! PS2? Prox mines and Connor Nets! I especially love those mines with advanced SLAM and intel agent. It sets up a beautiful recipe for death:

1. Check dial with intel agent.
2. Maneuver in front of target ship, SLAM if necessary.
   • If you will block their move, drop a prox mine.
   • If you will not block, drop a connor net and shoot at an actionless ship
3. Next turn repeat until you have no more bombs.

I love K wing bombers. The setup above is 33 points with one of each mine and advanced SLAM, or 35 with EM added.

Had a scum list with Emon, two ions and a conner, Tansarii wingman with ion cannon ans Dace with ion turret. Wrecked everything against a tie/fo ace list. Auto-damage with ion bombs, then wingman clearing Dace's stress and ioning again was just splendid.

Let me ion bomb them, then hit them again with a conner net.

I prefer Seismic. They are cheap. They do damage to anyone in range. Most importantly, they don't take an action.

It is my favorite trick (that I learned from Darkhorse) to zip up close with a few Bombers (R1) and grab the Target Lock. Next turn, all drop the Seismic Charges, do a 5 K-turn, and fire the Homing Missile even though Stressed. I've downed an Outrider in a single turn that way. Same for Poe.

My favorite is always proton bomb, followed closely by the conner net. There was one game I played where a very unfortunate enemy Y-wing ate 3 proton bombs in 1 turn because I was too lazy to try and shoot it and it just happened to work out that way. It died. Recently I had conner nets used against me and oh man are they way more annoying than I had initially thought, using them's gonna be fun.

ones that do damage. XD

I like sesmic because of it's cheap point cost, but i have to say my new favorite is Connor net.

You sir, have just given me a brilliant Idea involving a TIE punisher...(except with a 4-K turn instead.)
