no one's saying the bomb will be undetectable giftinger. Only the icon art will change. we'll all still be able to detect if if we hold our mouse over the enemy player's inventory item and read the extended tooltip.
If an enemy player who can't take out your factories or base through normal means goes to shop in the center of their base then that should be the only indicator a good player needs to check and see if they got a bomb. It just won't be so obvious. It'll take a little bit more skill and awareness to defend against it. I'm thinking that if the bomb's image is disguised it'll make the bomb more fun for suprising noobs and annihilating them faster and in a more fun way.
However you've got a point in your argument. If the bomb's art icon was changed then maybe the price should for it should go up a little too. And maybe you're right, maybe it is a bad idea. I'd still like to see it disguised though since I like to use bombs and it would be more realistic.

Why's the rothchild family crest and the illuminati symbol on my 1 dollar bill? Why do rich and powerful American "christian" leaders have gay sex and worship a giant 40 foot stone owl at Beach Grove every year? Why doesn't anyone care?
