1. Why did you attack Tinian and not another island in the Marianas.2 G" z0 o) @" r' k: S
. b) D" ~2 I" E# h7 I5 f+ X3 f8 HAll 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.* `5 j8 ~% ?1 L

2 p# X- r9 T% C, a8 T2 e( ZBecause 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.9 z' I$ w2 C' g- j# Z/ m, r

4. Why did you give up on SWPAC5 F/ w3 l$ F; w$ d/ i

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.& s/ C0 ~9 _3 q8 M3 b
