I, personally, do not think that the boomeroid is a poor weapon; it softens up aliens around the corner, can sometimes find that last "hiding" alien and thrown between the closing doors of a UFO... well, that's just mean. Out-of-LOS fatal wounds are also possible.
Of course, civilians attract boomeroids easily...

: The last few paragraphs that mention that can be removed as they appear to be more opinion than factual (and is rather contrary to the rest of the explanation). 

: Except for the blast-on-impact bit (which I think I added). I use that a lot, on account of the boomeroids that often litter the battlefield - anything can be solved with enough explosives. The only thing that's really against them is their size and their inability to destroy the reinforcement spawn pads. - [[User:NKF|NKF]] 00:58, 18 August 2008 (PDT)

::Or with a few inc. grenades. Fire also solves everything, albeit slower.
::Will remove the opinion, as it serves no purpose outside the discussion page.

== "Step up" ==

I'm looking at the in-game UFOpaedia, and the Boomeroid only has power 70 to the Marsec Proximity Mine's 75. This is, IMO, the biggest argument against actually using the Boomeroid, since it costs over twice as much as said mine. Which UFOpaedia is wrong here?

: Because the Apocalypse pages have not had the same level of attention or curation as the first two games, I would says 'step up' is the opinion of the author that wrote that line. 

: I like the Marsec Mine myself as it powerful, portable and affordable. It's the hopping feature and sheer abundance (late game) of the Boomeroids that sets it apart. [[User:NKF|NKF]] ([[User talk:NKF|talk]]) 08:52, 15 August 2018 (CEST)
