God like Strategic bombers

[Mathias Rex]

Hi Guys!

I played a multi game with my friend today. I was with the germans and he was with the English. After the war broke out he begann bomb me with his strategic bombers. We explored that with his 40 strat bombers, he killed almost my entire fighter forces. As you can see on the picture i had enourmus losses while he lost nothing. Is this normal? I did something wrong or this could be a bug? What do you think?

Is your friend cheating with his Strat Bombers stats?

That is very weird.

I notice that the STR are being disrupted 100%, but not a single one has been shot down.

I see really low detection for both sides. Did no one build any RADAR? I've seen odd air to air combat results when everyone has bad detection (hell, I thought mission efficiency was broken at one point), and maybe the low detection is causing some kind of issue.

It could also just be something is broken. Is Britain losing any STR to accidents? What do the aircraft variants look like?

No he's not

There was no radar from my side only anti air deffence. My friend lost only a few planes most of them shoted by the air deffence and few destroyed by accident. We experimented a litlle and when i put the misson to interception, the loses wasn't so high, but still i lost 30-40 planes and he lost only 2 or 3 bombers. We will do a experiment today. I put down a few radar stations and we will see the result. But honestly i don't think it will be better. I have the feeling that it is broken. Oh and he's strat bomber was the standart one, without any modification.

Is your Air Wing 460 Fighters?

Is your friend using any Escort fighters in a the same or different zone?

Is there any other air combat going on elsewhere?

Are you using heavy fighters?

No, it's mixed, the squadron numbers of my planes were betwen 100 and 50, i think one of them were 90. My friend didn't use any escort planes, the strat bombers flew without escort. Yes there were other air combats too.

Nope

This is why I agree with you:

I notice that the STR are being disrupted 100%, but not a single one has been shot down.

Even with the worst light fighters, there should be at least one or two strategic bombers shot down. If your planes were simply never finding the bombers (because of no detection due to lack of RADAR), then you wouldn't be losing so many planes in air to air combat. You are clearly engaging the enemy.

If you haven't already, bug report it and add any additional information (including a save).

Ok i will do a bug report. Thanks!

I think we found a solution for this bug and it will be available in the next patch.

Love it. I'm a big fan of strategic bombing (I'm the Arthur Harris of our MP group), so I have a personal stake in this.
