This is an answer to John Lawson by the author of Invasion Chess.
Firstly, I'm happy you've tried that game. I apologize for the rules are
somewhat ambiguous.
I've tried to make them as short as possible, hoping that playing with the
zrf would enlight the shaden areas.
It is exactly what happened here. Effectively the Bomb is ON only when the
Flag is present on the square. 
It is really the spirit of the game : if you're able to put your Flag on
the corner, you've got the right to bomb your enemy.
But, if you wait and, if in the meantime your flag goes away (or is
taken), too bad, you lose your opportunity. I think that's more real.
