Ummm, again, I don't have the Defiant SB right here, but is that correct?  I 
wasn't aware there was much substantial delay if a Bomber chooses to blow up 
a single body part.  Yeah, if they're going for the whole chain-reaction 
thing, sure (and assuming they don't make the necessary TN roll for the 
Trick that lets them speed up the chain reaction).

For a Bomber to simply detonate an arm and do those roughly 30 points of 
Massive Damage, I thought he simply had to use an action to do so...
