1. Why did you attack Tinian and not another island in the Marianas.! A }; h, B4 O. K/ w
) p4 F) h" g3 n% b i- ?. [
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.

0 l& v7 E N# x' V$ l4 w+ UBecause 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.- R6 v!

3 A$ }9 f3 {% O) [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.* \$ _8 T2 X) G8 Y8 U, A9 Z
