Roudnice nad Ladem Petrols

Post by warshipbuilder »

This is a capacity 2 oil storage facility on the NW outskirts of Praha. I have bombed it twice, once with a 100+ B-24's and once with an equivalent amount of B-17's. I have yet to even scratch the paint. Two raids, two hundred and fifty bombers and not even 1% damage! Are you kidding me? Has anybody else run across this while trying to bomb it? It was just a distraction raid, so it's not like a high priority target that I need to flatten, but the no return for the effort put forth seems not quite right. Hmmm knew some girls like that.[:D]

No, you have bombed the orphanage/farmers market/shoe factory that is a mile away, twice. The game has mistaken targets based on recon levels and random numbers. You might want to run a low alt. (9000 ft) recon or two and then try again.

Of course unless or until the oil system is fixed it is not really worth the effort.

Nah, I think it is a case of WAD. I have had time to think it over and...........
