Trees and Damage
« on: June 24, 2004, 05:09:35 PM »
I remeber seeing somewhere that trees do not absorb damage from bombs dropped on GV's. Last night there was a Panzer hiding under some trees near the end of the runway. I dropped 27,000lbs of bombs over a 5 minute span and could not damage him under the trees. Bomb craters were showing on top of the trees but nothing underneath. The Panzer was finally killed with a Tiger.
My question is if the bomb craters are showing on the top of trees and not the ground, are they doing any damage at ground level?:confused:
My mind is a raging torrent, flooded with rivulets of thought cascading into a waterfall of creative alternatives.
Stay thirsty my friends.

Heck if that's true, I know where I'm parking my 109's and P47's. Take THAT vultures!
