1. Why did you attack Tinian and not another island in the Marianas.
, Y! a' p9 H; `3 q. `: e9 K( k7 Q1 @! ^
, n0 H: `& g# u+ ~( A. }/ rAll other islands are mountainous so Tinian has a x 4 AV multiple for forts, Saipan, Guam or Pagan would have x 12 because forts and mountains are mutiplactive. i.e. attacking the Marianas for the allies is a no choice option.

* ]8 O! S' `1 I" ^: HBecause it is not possible in WITP to interdict land reinforcements if the Japanese player is willing to take the losses he can put 2 or 3 Divs ashore in short order either by transport aircraft or massed AK invasion - Pauk did that to me at Gasmata so he knows the moves and PZB has completed it many times another 1,000 AV x 4 = no matter what the allies bring its not possible.'

4. Why did you give up on SWPAC, _2 F# a5 t% P/ M- Q; Z0 U) q
! X' Q4 j, t8 b. F
SWPAC is a valid attack route BUT with every base having lvl 9 forts and the Japanese able to reinforce and it being malaria it is a VERY tough attack route. Remember Noemfoor against PZB a single Bde can stop 2 - 3 Divs of allied Troops for a long time. Forts are just to strong in jungle and Malaria.
