1. Why did you attack Tinian and not another island in the Marianas.
( a) p+ Q4 E" U5 y+ {9 b
8 t( ~/ n8 ]4 H4 i' B7 GAll 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.- j5 R9 f! v4 c I! L/ R- Y
3 J( N$ _. S0 C% A* n5 a2. Why did you not bomb before attacking.
, B9 |6 K6 t1 a4 Y# T
, e s2 J% K6 IBecause 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
7 r3 N p( s, L9 A& c0 C$ f
6 g( D/ y0 D% l X) m+ QSWPAC 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.
