Nuclear bombers were destroyed without causing any damage. I hope it is not true in the real war.

I should say, I hope it true in the real war.

Your answer is in your headline:
"2 nuclear bombers attacking a 100 units group including 27 AA"
Not only did you send two bombers to attack a large stack with 27 anti-aircraft regiments, but every one of the other 70+ units in the stack also contributed some anti-air capability to the stack's defense. Even allowing for the reduced/inefficient AA capability of an over-size stack of AA units because of state-based damage efficiency (SBDE), your bombers may have quite possibly run into a wall of 100 to 200 AA points . . . so, yeah, the result was expected by anyone who understands how AA works in Call of War.
FYI, I have witnessed the result you have described above, in similar circumstances, on several occasions. I have also shot down several nuclear bombers on their final attack runs with fighter wings.The post was edited 1 time, last by MontanaBB ().

A couple threads ago you said AA was useless? Now it will kill nuke bombers? Make up your mind.War is a game that is played with a smile. If you can't smile, grin. If you can't grin keep out of the way til you can. - Winston Churchill

That's reminiscent of H.G. Wells' ending of the Martians. Better take care of that, Kosh. -

In a real war with the deployment of nuclear assets, bombers carry defensive mechanisms that can divert say a SAM coming up towards it or even an air-to-air shot from defending fighters. Also, the strategic bombers used today fly at such a high altitude, making them less vulnerable to ground based defenses. The nuclear device can be employed a ways from the actual target and come in fast, with no chance of ground AA (say anything similar to Phalanx Systems or even 20mm guns, hitting the incoming ordnance.

So when someone says I hope/do not hope this happens in real war on a forum that is for a WWII game, they are probably referring to WWII when they say real war. Not Vietnam or Iraq.Forum Gang Commissar

Wow, it's like talking to my granddaughter. My original reply had nothing to do with this game or any game as I was replying to what I interpreted as a comment regarding a REAL war. Carry on general, conversing with you via typed words is giving me a headache.
Go back, re-read the post about REAL war, then re-read my reply. I know it's rough, but you can do it, I have faith in you. If not, not my concern, read what you will into a reply, but it should've been awfully obvious.
Perhaps the game creators could do just that, create SAM batteries. You have nuclear rockets and I don't recall any of those deployed in the real WWII, just a suggestion.

Uhhh, that was a good response. Not an intelligent or coherent one, but coming from the likes of you, it was the best you could come up with I suppose.
Anxiously awaiting the next killer reply. -
