this is probably a better way to format update teasers than just listing all the notes in blockquotes. i still did that for the 51.0 update preview because it wouldntve fit in a ref and actually describes the paragon instead of just saying when it will release

Introduced Version 51.0

The Ballistic Obliteration Missile Bunker (B.O.M.B. for short) is the Bomb Shooter's upcoming Paragon in Bloons TD 6, to be introduced in version 51.0. It is a combination of Bloon Crush, MOAB Eliminator, and Bomb Blitz.

Its intended to fulfill a role of an expensive paragon that is simpler to use compared to other paragons for a similar price point.

The Ballistic Obliteration Missile Bunker has three mechanics:

  • It has a slow-firing main attack that fires homing missiles, which stun and push back Bloons and spawn cluster bombs and sub-cluster bombs.
  • Its Activated Ability fires an Indomitable Surface-to-Air Ballistic Missile (ISABM) that moves slowly and leaves a trail of explosions that push back MOAB-Class Bloons, generating a large explosion on contact with its target. Its cooldown is reduced by losing lives.
  • Its passive ability is a stronger version of Bomb Blitz's Bomb Storm. It carries over a change being made in version 51.0 where if the ability triggers from a Bloon leaking, it also damages the leaking Bloon before potentially losing lives.[1]

Development

In the update notes for version 49.0, Ninja Kiwi stated that they would add a new Paragon or Boss Bloon, depending on community feedback, in version 52.0.[2] However, the update notes for version 50.0 stated that they would add the Bomb Shooter's Paragon in version 51.0 instead. It was tentatively named the Supreme Missile Platform, and concept art was already made for it.[3]

The preview for version 51.0 revealed the final name of the Ballistic Obliteration Missile Bunker and an in-depth explanation of its mechanics and concept.[1]

  • Bomb Shooter's Ballistic Obliteration Missile Bunker or B.O.M.B. for short!
    • Anti-MOAB clustering stun bombs. MOABs? Gone.
    • Pop that BAD in only 3 shots? You got it!
    • Spammable Anti-Boss assassination missile? Consider it done.
    • All the small stuff? *ahem* weee-have backup for that
  • Ok, jokes aside we wanted to add something expensive but simple to understand into the primary category of Paragons, and the Bomb Shooter paragon feels like it accomplishes this with 1 attack, 1 active ability, and yes 1 passive ability.
    • Slow firing but heavy hitting main attack fires homing missiles that explode with force that stuns & pushes back Bloons and bursts into a cluster of powerful explosions, each of which will always burst into further clusters.
    • The Bomb Paragon’s ability fires an Indomitable Surface-to-Air Ballistic Missile (ISABM) which slowly travels through the air leaving a trail of explosions that would be pushing back any MOABs they pass over (If any MOABs were to somehow survive it passing over) until coming into contact with its designated target in one final powerful explosion. Also hey, leaking lives partially resets the cooldown, so go ahead and be a bit reckless!
    • Blitz Tactical Storm. Yea it’s Bombest Blitzier, just a wee bit stronger of a Bomb Blitz, nothing crazy here… Although, I guess we can mention early that Bomb Blitz itself has been balance changed so that it can now hit the leaking target that triggers it and can potentially prevent any life loss, and that of course carries up to this paragon version as well - this is exhilarating, get excited!
