I was watching my score for bomber recently.
I was #4 in damage/death + 1 and # 13 in damage per sortie, my % was high with a low rank and my points were low. I had zero field captures.
My bomber rank (overall) turned out to be 340 after that.
I am now several bomber sorties into my tour, I have slipped to 50 in damage/death + 1 and mid 60s for damage per sortie. my hit % has dropped slightly while my points have risen very slightly. I have 1 base capture.
As I write this, I am now ranked 14.
My total bomber points have only risen very very slightly, and all my ranks are higher (in number) except field captures.
Why do base captures count for so much of your bomber ranking? Am I missing something else that is effecting this score?
