Bombs
In Star Pirates, Bombs are used to kill people, usually people who you normally would not be able to kill.
Bombs are about as reliable as you can expect a piece of high technology coupled with a pile of explosive material that is haphazardly installed on the outside of spaceships - erratic.
What's the Point?
Each Bomb does a percentage of the defender's current hull (or attackers - or they fail outright).
Bombing allows everybody with the correct officer to kill Mr. Awesome (or Gilmore, Galaxiana, NinjaPirate, etc.), at a price.
Effective bombing requires that you use the Expert Technician.
Types of Bombs
There are several bombs in Star Pirates
Small Bombs
Large Bombs
Cluster Crawlers
Pumpkin Bombs
This missive will only cover Small Bombs. In my opinion, the other bombs are less cost-effective, and I wouldn't use them unless they drop in price.
Use of Bombs
Before you plant bombs, make sure:
- You have the bombs in your armory
- You are at the same station as your target
- You are not in the shipyard
- You are ready to attack your target. That is, make sure you have enough energy and make sure they can be attacked.
To plant bombs:
- Go to the target's profile page
- Click on the 'Plant Bombs' link
- Identify how many bombs you would like to plant.
Attack!
Attack your target as soon as possible. They may find the bombs at any time. If they find them, they will deactivate all of them. You will receive a message when they have disarmed.
Fun Use of Bombs
If the target does not have an Expert Technician officer, it may be a while before they find any bombs planted on them. This has lead to some amusing contests.
