161 bombers and no fire?

Post by dogancan »

hi,

first thanks for this great game, I am really enjoying it.

My question is, in the 2nd turn of BoB 1 month scenario, I made a night bombing to a rail junction in the city with 161 bombers without any escorts.

It seemed to be working as I did not lost any plane, and according to the pop-up messages the bombs "fell in the london area". But after the turn, I cannot see any fire in the city, and my terror points are still zero.

Is it because I did not sent a recon plane to check the result afterwards? If that is it, then that is OK, I am pretty sure 161 bombers should devastate some part of london. But if else, then is such an outcome really sensible?

Also is it common that more than a hundred unprotected ACs return from a night visit to london without any losses?

I don't know if this is correct, but I think there is a bug with the bombing of rail roads etc...I'm sure I remember Sarge saying stay away from bombimg anything to do with rail for the moment.
