Thermite bomb

A thermite bomb was a type of bomb made with thermite that was available during the High Republic Era. In 242 BBY, the Nihil Tempest Runners Pan Eyta and Kassav Milliko plotted to assassinate Eye of the Nihil Asgar Ro, and enlisted the Nihil's third Tempest Runner, the Twi'lek Lourna Dee, to help them. After hearing of their plan, Dee left and informed Ro of the plot. She suggested that in order to eliminate both Eyta and Milliko, all it would take the Eye was to plant a thermite bomb near the core of Eyta's flagship, the Elegencia. Ro ultimately did not go through with Dee's idea.
