=Thoughts on {{PAGENAME}}=
==={{PAGENAME}} in a nutshell===
The Dire Troll Bomber is quite simply the best ranged heavy warbeast the trolls have and one of the favorite beasts in the faction.
Because of reload, it's Animus and it's so-so RAT stat it produces loads of Fury that you will need to get rid of somehow, but when you want to carpet bomb a section of the battlefield you can do no better.
===Combos & Synergies===
<u>Warlocks</u>
* [[Ragnor Skysplitter, the Runemaster]] can dig him in, let him fire away in safety and give him Pulverizer when things get intimate.
* [[Captain Gunnbjorn]] gives it Kill Shot. And ups it's accuracy.
* [[Horgle, the Anvil]] absolutely loves the Bomber to light things up with Firestarter for Feat turn.
* [[Jarl Skuld, Devil of the Thornwood]] loves himself the far strike animus and a good target for Magic Bullet, and the Bomber benefits from Swift Hunter in turn.
<u>Warbeasts</u>
* [[Dire Troll Mauler]] gives it the hitting power it lacks.
* [[Dozer & Smigg]]'s Animus makes him rat 7 and the deviations  re-rollable, so you can get bombs just where you want them early.
<u>Units & Solos</u>
* [[Dhunian Knot]]'s Puppet Master can help him land a direct hit.
* [[Kriel Stone]] can improve his hitting and staying power.
* [[Pyg Lookouts]] can mark targets for him.
* [[Bog Trog Mist Speaker]]: Eyeless Sight on a (fish]stick, is always something a ranged warbeast will love.
===Drawbacks & Downsides===
* It's great - but still hits like a ranged warbeast in melee.
* If you pay one for reload, you then only have 3 fury available. So they can not boost both hit and damage on both, and can't boost the blast damage rolls (which need it more) as well.
* His animus is only self, making him a versatile range beast,but not good on supporting other faction choices.
* The bombs hit harder than the Claws, so being engaged becomes really problematic.
===Tricks & Tips===
Boom! You can get about as much heavy-hurting work by aiming as by melee.
