Boom Brothers is a Tier 4 () Unit of the Fire faction. This uncommon card was released with the Twilight Edition and has no affinity variants, nor a promo version.
This card has been changed already, compared to its original appearance in BattleForge.
BOOM Brothers are a surprisingly powerful unit for their price, capable of unleashing a devastating blast that can eradicate many foes.
Lore
Legend
The little Goblin was furious. “Partok, you blundering muscle-mountain! What were you thinking of!?” He wiped the slime from his face and walloped the Ogre as hard as he could with his torch. “When I say Fire Away, you stand still. You do not charge ahead. You do not sit down. And you certainly do not bend over to pick up a piece of Elf!” The Ogre did not answer. After years of service in the Boom Squad, he was deaf as a stone. But his Goblin targeteer knew nothing of this, as he himself was deaf too. |

Card Info
Notes & Strategies
Boom Brothers are very powerful but suffer from low life points for the tier. These heavy ordinance units are designed to unleash a devastating burst of damage in vast quantities before the enemy can engage them.
Because BOOM can knock away XL creatures, enough of them can effectively stun-lock creatures. However, this ability is ground-only, making flying units a death sentence.
Campaign PvE
Boom Brothers are incredibly effective at dispatching extra-large creatures, making them a strong pick against many late-game foes. However, any flying creature can kill them easily.
Random PvE
Boom Brothers are powerful but lack the hitpoints necessary to survive the late-game fights. Their ability also does not contribute strongly to the immense firepower of the XL train.
