What a flak above the targets, I succeeded in bombing the tank coloumn only once, the others time I was hit by flak just before to begin the bombing run.
I tryed different approaches to the Grants (frontally, by the sides or by the rear) but the result was always the same, my poor Henshel full of holes (yes, I am not a great Jabo pilot......... many thanks to whom put on board all those armour plates).
BTW on the only time I release my bombs, I scored nearly a direct hit on a Grant but nothing happened and also the cannons seems to do nothing (even though I put 38% of bullets on the target) am I doing something wrong?
However your missions are always a very nice job and, as John says :"keep 'em coming".
Cheers my Friend :ernae: and have always good flying

P.S. I plan to do more testing on the next week-end to improve my Jabo pilot skills lol
Cris,
There is a problem in MAW with some of the vehicles, they are indestructible. Also the MAW flak is overdone and it is suicide to attack facilities, armor or ships. We are going to work on some of these isues in the update we are doing.

Hi Steve
That explains many things lol, howevere yesterday night
at least I succeeded in destroying some of the 40 mm Bofors which protect the Grants but for the latter no chances.
I must say that the flak FX is impressive and intimidating, how do they faced it in the real world ?

at least they were not bothered with playing the mission once again in case of flak hit ...
more seriously, I remember french as Closterman writting he had no more the nerve to attack flak by the end of the war, and became depressed for a while.
I remember that too. I recall reading that after a mission he had a "crisis" on the cockpit of "The Grand Charles" , hadn't he?
@Cris:
I totally agree with you. I will release this mission shortly but with less flak and replacing the Grants by Shermans. But there will still be surprises before this mission ends...:faint:

Hi Nonato
......I think that I shall not like those type of surprises :costumes: nevertheless I am waiting for your new mission.
Have a nice week-end and always good flying.
