When I consider that TIE punishers with their new-fangled Trajectory Simulators have the corner on the bomb market, I am left wondering what TIE bombers are good for, other than Barrage Rockets. I especially want to take advantage of Nimble Bomber. Then it hit me: Trajectory Simulator doesn't work with mines, so...

I own 3 Proximity Mines tokens, so I figured why not give this a try? They can drop their mines at speed-1 or -2 straight or bank, for a lot of coverage. Howlrunner powers their primary weapons on the approach, and Baron Fel harasses from the flank.
I've tried Deathfire with Proximity Mines, and it's a little hard to line up those bombs at low initiative, but with three bombers, that should become much easier. If you were going to bring these three bombers, who would you bring to support them?
