Can it be done? Could it be done?
Yes, it was done.

Thanks to everyone who came out to Sunday night (1/23)'s ship raid, where we sucessfully planted all 18 bombs on the mothership, then partied in the bowl.

No place I'd rather be than Justice <3

This ship raid was brought to you by The Crimson Moon. Happy Wintereenmas!

I was bummin' to have missed out on this, but as I explained to Nursie, I'd already involved myself and another SG-mate in the earlier raid.

Grats on the accomplishment.

Congrats Molten.

It's not very hard, and because people are not used to it yet, it's slower and lower-earnings than a regular smash and grab raid. But, with practice, it should be every bit as fast and high-earnings as a regular raid.

Hopefully people will see this.

Pretty sure the raid duration timer caps well before all bombs are planted, to the point you are at the max by planting enough to spawn ukon, and then defeating him. Outside of quickly getting credit for the bomb badge and for kicks, I'm not real sure why you would want to do it all the time.

I don't think you'd actually enjoy accelerated progress toward the badge, since you have to quit the team to set the bomb. In fact, it seems like overall progress would be slowed. (On a 32-person raid, using standard tactics, 32 person-bomb credits are earned for 4 bombs. On a 32-person raid, using 18/18 tactics, only 18 person-bomb credits are issued.)

Or am I missing something?

On a 3 team raid, 5 people would get two credits, everyone would get one for the last.

On a 4 team every team would get 4 bombs with two remainders.

So it's always N-1 with N=the number of bomb assigned to the team who would get double credit.

So credit for the badge is slightly faster. What's more, no need to watch a timer to see when to start planting again.
