1. Why did you attack Tinian and not another island in the Marianas.2 C+ a8 z# }2 @' O" ]
& q8 Q/ A' H2 B. |- N: r
All 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.3 V( i: ]5 C ]: l" W+ Y

2. Why did you not bomb before attacking.
# ~, t* l0 ^; t Y) T+ x
$ t+ w7 L9 `5 s) f, fBecause 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.$ B* h5 }# |- M1 T( ^' {. ]

X7 ^2 L* f9 t" X1 J4 o5 u' @, P" X" r5 D3 ~
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.
