Probably the greatest ion bomb in history happens in this game

At 8:50, the Z-95 rolls at Range 1, which means that Dash wouldn't have been able to fire on him.

Still not sold on bombs. Granted, I am a pretty...mediocre...player at best, but I just don't see them being too viable. Reserve Ammunition made them a bit better / viable, but using them feels a bit clunky and...limited given their rather high points cost. I want to love them because I love Y-Wings, but they just aren't too amazing.

Dash was shooting at the front right B-wing that turn, not the Z-95.

Ah, ok. Because I swore I heard the commentator say ''z-95,'' I still haven't even seen the bomb yet. At work and all.

Long story short (spoiler?):

Enemy flies all 4 B-Wings in formation, Miranda gets in front of them, slams just to their right and drops the Ion Bomb right amidst them, hitting all 4.

Dude! Yeah. Major spoilers. I was still hoping the 4 Bs were going to, you know, do something.

Aw man, sorry. Really! :(

I read that as you not seeing the bomb's use...I feel bad now :(

Spoiler:
They actually do something, while placed right, the Ion Bomb doesn't really do a lot (I think?) as the Bs still take down Dash.

I'm a bomb lover. Anytime someone mentions bombs, I get a grin. No need to convince me of their use. I've never used the ion bomb so far, though.

The number of times I've caught dodgers, though, I ought to.

As nice as that was with an ion bomb, I'd much rather drop a proton bomb instead.

I am the one you warned me of

Yeah, that Ion Bomb actually...didn't do anything.Hit 4 people, but could capitilize on it. Now if you dropped an actual damage bomb, that'd have been a lot more impressive.

Drop Bombardier and Advanced SLAM from Miranda to get a HLC on Dash. Those are worth the extra die that get from HLC.
