Electro Proton Bomb Question

By Sir13scott, in X-Wing Rules Questions

So the bomb reads: During the System Phase you may spend 1 [charge] to drop an Electro-Proton Bomb using with the [1-straight] template. *Then* place 1 fuse marker on that device.

So so here is the question, through triggers like Genius, Deathfire, and Paige Tico, would you skip the Fuse marker trigger due to the phrasing of then after the system phase drop, or does it have to get the fuse token no matter what?

The only thing those change is when the drop occurs, the rest of the card is still followed. So the EPB would still get a fuse token.
