'''Bombs Away''' is an [[Power (BCS)|Exotic Power]] [[card]] in ''[[Bloons Card Storm]]'', introduced in {{BCS version|4.0}}. It instantly destroys a target [[Bloon (BCS)|Bloon]], and cannot target Large Bloons.

The card artwork depicts a [[Monkey Ace]] dropping bombs (similarly to those from a [[Bomber Ace]]), destroying a [[Ceramic Bloon]].

==Tips==

*Bombs Away ~~is sort of a~~ more ~~flexible [[Extreme Heat]] that is not limited to~~ [[Gwendolin (~~BCS~~)|Gwendolin]]~~, but costs~~ more ~~and cannot target Large Bloons~~.

*Bombs Away costs 3 Gold more than [[Gwendolin (BTD6)|Gwendolin]]'s [[Extreme Heat]] and has more restrictions. It has very few worthwhile targets, not many Bloons cost equal or greater than this card, and its high cost is difficult to justify against aggro. It's hard to use and can become stuck in your hand very easily.

*Bombs Away has ~~extremely~~ few ~~cost-effective~~ targets, ~~with the only possible targets giving~~ equal ~~gold value~~ or ~~having positive gold value are [[Zebra Bloon (BCS)|Zebra Bloon]], [[Double Ceramic Bloon]], [[Camo Regrow Ceramic Bloon]], [[Camo Regrow Rainbow Bloon]], [[Rainbow Bloon (BCS)|Rainbow Bloon]]~~, and ~~[[Double Rainbow Bloon]]~~.

*Targeting important non-large Bloons are the only targets really worth using Bombs Away on, with some better candidates being [[Triple Threat Bloon]], [[Extractor Bloon]], [[Bolstered Bloon]], [[RAPID]], and [[Double Rainbow Bloon]].

*It ~~is generally advised~~ to ~~not~~ use ~~this card, as valuable targets are very limited~~ and it can become stuck in your hand very easily.

*Targeting important non-large Bloons are the only targets really worth using Bombs Away on, with some better candidates being [[Extractor Bloon]], [[Bolstered Bloon]], [[RAPID]], and [[Double Rainbow Bloon]].

*Like [[Bloon Melter]], Bombs Away can be used on [[The Eternal]], but the extreme price on Bombs Away makes this not the best choice for Eternal strategies.

*Against [[Dreadbloon (BCS)|Dreadbloon]], this Boss may be foolish enough to use Bombs Away on much weaker Bloons from your side, such as those from a [[Red Bloon Apopalypse]], or target [[Volatile Bloon]] to trigger a board clear. If the Boss had only used one charge, it may be possible to time the wastage of the second charge on the next turn.
