Another fun one is when the Nazis built a Decoy Airfield to get the Allies to waste time destroying or capturing it as opposed to real high value operations. Due to inability to complete projects on time, a long running issue with the Nazis, the Allies had plenty of time to catch on to the ruse and dropped a single wooden bomb on it.
