Front Flying Clasp for Bombers

[9./JG52Gruber]

I was disappointed to discover the Front Flying Clasp for Bombers - Gold with Pendant is not in the Career even though it is listed under the award details. I recently completed my 300th mission in He 111/Ju 88 career spanning BoM & BoS so far and did not receive it. Will it come later or is it not included?

Yes, it's in the game. What unit are you with?

In the BoS campaign I've mainly been with I/KG51 except for a time in October where I had to bounce around to KG76 (?) (only Ju 88 unit still joinable) and then II/KG55 when all Ju 88 units left the front until early November when I/KG51 came back.

Ok, great, thank you! I found out the problem, so hopefully it will be fixed in the next official release.

Glad to help. Will I be able to get the award still in this career or have I missed it? Is it not counting my sorties as bomber missions?

You'll still get it when you progress to a new day in your career - it was just an issue with the award configuration file. Until then, you can safely continue flying this career.

@9./JG52_Gruber, you should now see the Pendant award when you advance to the next day in your career.

After completing the next career mission I did indeed get the award but I also got another Clasp in Silver as well so there might still be a bug? Thanks for you help!

No problem!

 

As for the Silver Clasp, that is odd. You might see it go away on successive dates. Sometimes it takes the award config file a day or two to catch up with what awards you and your other pilots should have.
