1. Why did you attack Tinian and not another island in the Marianas.# p& E. g0 t$ n( y8 o
3 p3 }1 ^# @. {: p! u5 h+ i5 AAll 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./ ^: a6 R; r S% f( T
2 G/ B0 B& U% k* a* ^2. Why did you not bomb before attacking.
; @7 b C$ U0 B2 [6 N: q$ f& S& e; d; }
Because 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.: L, R4 {* Z: b# e2 E) V

( m0 f' @8 n4 h+ G. e. v
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.
