Yup, that's why they're called dumb bombs [:D] To be fair, there's little that can be done about that - and as the British concluded quite early in World War II, high-altitude bombing with conventional, unguided weapons is not suitable for precision targeting (which was why they quickly adopted the doctrine of area bombing instead). And so it is for CMANO - it's go low, or hit areas where missing one target might mean hitting something else (assuming that's a desirable outcome for the scenario). Mk-82s and the like are very effective when you get down low (my favourite altitude setting for "dumb" bombing is 2000 ft) - but that comes at the cost of exposure to ground fire, and is really only feasible with fighter-bombers that have the agility to dodge most of it.
