Description	Tick tick boom boom!

Timebombs are one of the original BrickBattle weapons, which was added in March 2006 as a stationary object, and in August 2006 as a Tool. They will drop on the player's head, if the player isn't moving, and after a few seconds, they blow up, killing anyone near it. In order to dodge it, players must simply walk away from it, roll it away with superballs, or, alternatively, due to a physics glitch, the player can jump over it several times and "kick" it a long distance. Used properly, bombs can be quite enjoyable to play with. Please be wary of the explosive radius.

Tips

Many strategies can be made for this explosive. Capable of taking down a large tower, they have massive splash damage. They can instantly destroy someone who ventures too close to the detonation. They appear above your head, and then can bounce, so watch where you are placing them if there is something that you do not want to destroy. They also react to each other's explosions, just like real physics. If one explodes right next to another, the second one will be blasted far away, possibly exploding next to someone who thinks he is safe or on something that you wanted to keep.

• Try to hide one a little out of the way where a lot of people move. If you are lucky, it will go off when someone is near, earning you an easy kill. You can also try dropping a bomb and waiting until it is near detonation. Then you can shoot a missile at it, and it will roll to another player.
• In combination with the Superball you can make great attacks. Drop a bomb, equip superball and shoot the bomb towards another player using a Superball.
• Use bombs to blow open the Thief's Den roof, the secret entrances and secret walls. There are also many destroyable places in the Haunted House place.
• Use them to hinder movement: you can easily take out a tower or a bridge necessary for people to get through, such as the Sky Bridge.
• Anything that touches it can knock it away. Including you.
• If you place a bomb down, stand in front of it, and jump, you can be flung far away, and you can use the sword of you overshoot or undershoot your target.

Trivia

This section is a trivia section. Please relocate any relevant information into other sections of the article.

• The original timebomb had a much longer fuse and could be dropped at a faster rate than the timebomb as seen in the tool bar. Some of Roblox's older places still use the old timebomb.
• This timebomb was originally a model created by David Baszucki on March 28, 2006.
• The basic bomb used to flash bright blue and pink and makes a "ticking" sound. The ticks and color-changes speed up when it is about to explode.
