Jesus Jay, you're an animal

This. I took out Beaumont FB last night when Veh was only 10% damage. 8 direct hits will only do 72% damage.

I've seen this happen as well. Not just with Inf at 0% and fb goes down with Veh to 100% but vice-versa - over the last 5 years at least.  Our theory always was that in the last hour (or two? or more?) that the tents seemingly at 0% had been DOWN and then repaired to 0% but that somehow the game, some algorithm or some CRS Computer God  'remembered' or mistakenly still thought  those tents were in a DOWN state and so when the other tents go DOWN the whole FB is/seems blown. This because its an extension theory of the provable, replicable in-game reality that if Inf Tents are DOWN and then repair to (usually) something around 99%-85% - you still have only to blow the Veh via charges or air bombs to finish blowing the FB with no additional charges required on the Inf. Again, same vice-versa for Veh DOWN and repaired somewhat, just  blow the inf.   

Alright, so it's a confirmed bug/occurrence. I've seen this happen before too.

This a rare but longstanding bug that can effect any FB.  We seen it from time to time over the years but could never replicate it. However a week ago it happened  when one of the Rats was at an FB and from the information they were able to give us we were able to set about testing a few theories one of us had about what might be causing it.   Using one of these theories we finally found a way of replicating what happens.  Bizarrely enough it turns out that the initial theory we were working on was not actually the cause, but led us to what is. This is now ticketed and hopefully will be fixed soon.   Can't go into details of what causes it for obvious reasons, but hopefully can explain it once it's fixed as it's an interesting one and Kempi & Oldzeke deserve a lot of credit for all the testing they did to be able to replicate it.

Congrats.  

ATTENTION AXIS In recognition of gallant and distinguished service, the Axis High Command hereby presents the following: Axis Fighter Ace Award to the following player Jay644 For actions in combat during campaign 189. On 12 Aug 2022, Jay644 departed Butte de Montfaucon Airfield on mission 208439 as a Bf109F-4. During the course of the 35 minute mission, Jay644 closed with and decisively engaged enemy air forces ultimately scoring 5 kills vs enemy aircraft. This epic sortie has earned Jay644 the distinctive designation of Air Ace. The actions of this service member were in keeping with the highest standards, and reflect credit upon the player, their country, and the Axis Forces.

Kudos all. On a side note, I like this new format, it feels a lot easier to skim through.
