: Q4 a7 d( N1 o: o. f& y% c1. Why did you attack Tinian and not another island in the Marianas.
, g/ [. B9 ?- |- l0 Z( R) ?6 _# Y' j( \( 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.

2. Why did you not bomb before attacking.
$ q2 b) h& ~0 f7 P) W; J G0 s: ?3 @; ^3 f+ `
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.

4. Why did you give up on SWPAC
m5 t: J) R" R/ r! c3 H$ B0 w! ^0 X- B6 i
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.
