You're just special. It's random for everybody else.

It is random but it's probability of hitting you is too high.

It is random but it's probability of hitting you is too high.

After been hit by the 1rst round  from the cv @ beyond visual distance I fully agree with this statement.
I do not know how probability changes with distance to target, but in a real world shells wont travel exactly the way you want with wind direction/speed  changes every 1000 feet.


My ammo last for 6 Lancasters, or one Yak3.

So in the real world that would have to be a random hit and not something that happens every time? Just like it's modeled in AH?

While the probability to do any sort of damage on bomber is too low (is it even possible with the crazy hit points the bombers have got?). Also I love the friendly fire on puff ack  :aok  :rofl

Getting killed by the flak shooting at the enemy doth not prove the ack is coded to laser accuracy.

  Never been bothered too much by CV ack and I have been shot down in bombers by it. What some people think is CV ack is a good 5" gunner.  :uhoh They are deadly to attack aircraft.  Change course and Alt. often to throw off ack. Killed many a CV that didn't have high cap or a good gunner.
I always wanted to fight an impossible battle against incredible odds.

All this whining I wish we had the real deal ack for a day, specifically the american navy naval upgrades of 1945 (What we have now is a 1941 type setup with minimum ack)

Put into perspectives:



If you look at the AAA upgrades of american naval ships from 1942 to 1945, everyone of them pretty much became a floating AAA battery packed with as many guns as possible,
Light cruisers were remodeled to become floating 5/6 inch gun batteries.

I would much rather fly through aces high ack then try to fly through historical ack for 1 day.
