oddly, all of the tests today, the bombers got blanked, so some of this is still roll of the die

time to level the playing field back again

man this is getting odd

some games, I get between 4 and 7 Bomber kills (and 4 or more FB kills) and then go into runs of nothing

and oddly, I can run a 7 day battle and get 7 kills, then run a 30 day battle and get 0

so it is kind of, it can do it, it just is not going to do it always

I got the LW fighters, defending themself now at least

Good story. From your new book? [:)]

IIRC, similar situations occurred in the Pacific with "Vals" mixing it up. Didn't Rudel score more than few kills in his Ju-87 against the Soviets? (not sure how many were in Fw-190Fs)

naw, that one was from the net, but it was funny, as I can remember that happening to me in the BoB flight sim :)

Change your bomber for allied types, in my game in Avalanche bombers are more dangerous than figthers, a bounce with 7 MC-202 to a Boston unit cost to me 1 shoot down and 2 damage and only 1 bomber damage and is a unit with 30 bomber in the north or Rome with no scorts VS 150 fighers... and all this after they attack the objetive and suffer several attacks [:@]

PD: i see that the game is to the allied side special in the figther sweeps its frustrating a good day destroyed by a sigle enemy mission from 63-14 to 63-40 in a single 75 fighers sweep and the sweeps was intercepted [X(]

A couple Fulmars found themselves downed by D3A fire during the IO raids. It can happen though not often.
