4 L3 M1 a8 `+ d/ L9 z
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./ r" x7 n8 S# M% c. y. d, S& P: R" j7 g
, z8 \' v+ l+ g2. Why did you not bomb before attacking.! p9 u0 l, o3 i2 [
( {7 T, W! w( GBecause 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.

8 ]+ m; p' `' ~: F1 MSWPAC 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.$ E1 {5 u9 k/ Q: G
