Multiple bombs and plant sites inside of each team&#8217;s base can make this insane with larger teams or go with the classic single bomb attacker\/defender game. Imagine the challenge if you have to scout out the defending base, too, because you don&#8217;t know where the plant site is or you have to find the bomb components scattered across the battlefield!<\/p>\n<p>Strategy and Tactics:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>DO NOT under any circumstances lose control of the bomb! Even if the other team is not allowed to touch the bomb they can camp right on top of it and prevent your team from reacquiring it.<\/li>\n<li>The most challenging aspect of this game is controlling the bomb location until the bomb actually goes off. Before you actually set the bomb figure out how you&#8217;re going to defend the location. If some of your fellow defenders are low on hit points it might be wise to retreat slightly, let them run out to get killed (and then respawn with full health), and THEN set the bomb.<\/li>\n<li>If you are on defense and you hear that the bomb has been planted you must get to the plant site as fast as possible, but don&#8217;t attack until you can assault the location with a fire team. Attacking alone will leave you severely outgunned. Defense of a location is always easier than attacking it, so make sure you have help if you&#8217;re going to manage to eliminate the bomb&#8217;s defenders.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A variation on Zone Control and Base Assault, in Bomb the Base games your job is to bring a bomb to the defenders&#8217; base, start the timer and then prevent the bomb from being defused before it can go off! &hellip; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mikescombatgames.com\/laser-tag-blog\/2009\/01\/game-summaries-for-players-bomb-the-base\/\">Continue reading <span class=\"meta-nav\">&rarr;<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[9,8],"class_list":["post-62","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-game-summaries-for-players","tag-difficult-laser-tag-games","tag-long-laser-tag-games"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v24.2 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Game Summaries for Players: Bomb the Base - Mike&#039;s Combat Games Laser Tag Blog<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/www.mikescombatgames.com\/laser-tag-blog\/2009\/01\/game-summaries-for-players-bomb-the-base\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Game Summaries for Players: Bomb the Base - Mike&#039;s Combat Games Laser Tag Blog\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"A variation on Zone Control and Base Assault, in Bomb the Base games your job is to bring a bomb to the defenders&#8217; base, start the timer and then prevent the bomb from being defused before it can go off! &hellip; Continue reading &rarr;\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/www.mikescombatgames.com\/laser-tag-blog\/2009\/01\/game-summaries-for-players-bomb-the-base\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Mike&#039;s Combat Games Laser Tag Blog\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2009-01-18T20:51:43+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2012-10-19T18:44:10+00:00\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"admin\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"admin\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.mikescombatgames.com\/laser-tag-blog\/2009\/01\/game-summaries-for-players-bomb-the-base\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.mikescombatgames.com\/laser-tag-blog\/2009\/01\/game-summaries-for-players-bomb-the-base\/\",\"name\":\"Game Summaries for Players: Bomb the Base - Mike&#039;s Combat Games Laser Tag Blog\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.mikescombatgames.com\/laser-tag-blog\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2009-01-18T20:51:43+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2012-10-19T18:44:10+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.mikescombatgames.com\/laser-tag-blog\/#\/schema\/person\/ef163a8e8da000a31f76d8d7613b7ac6\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.mikescombatgames.com\/laser-tag-blog\/2009\/01\/game-summaries-for-players-bomb-the-base\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/www.mikescombatgames.com\/laser-tag-blog\/2009\/01\/game-summaries-for-players-bomb-the-base\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.mikescombatgames.com\/laser-tag-blog\/2009\/01\/game-summaries-for-players-bomb-the-base\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/www.mikescombatgames.com\/laser-tag-blog\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Game Summaries for Players: Bomb the Base\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/www.mikescombatgames.com\/laser-tag-blog\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/www.mikescombatgames.com\/laser-tag-blog\/\",\"name\":\"Mike&#039;s Combat Games Laser Tag Blog\",\"description\":\"&quot;Tactical Laser Tag on Steroids&quot; meets tactics, strategy, birthday parties, and more!
