To start with, are you moving the THAAD to be directly between Tinian airport and inbound ballistic missiles from the direction of China? Otherwise THAAD won't fire due to DLZ issues.
Second, set USS Princeton to WEAPONS HOLD when the DF-26Cs are first detected. Otherwise Princeton will try to intercept with SM-3s without a hope in hell of making the shot, and the THAAD will wait patiently until the SM-3s peter out before even trying to fire. Don't forget to set Princeton to WEAPONS TIGHT after!
Third, change the THAAD Weapon Release Authorisation for both ballistic and supersonic missiles to 2 THAADs per target. The THAAD missile datalink can only handle 8 shots at a time, so firing all THAADs won't work. Instead it ought to fire a single interceptor at each of the eight DF-26C RVs. As the targets start to be destroyed the THAAD will start assigning two interceptors per target up to the max of 8 on the datalink.
In spite of all that, sometimes a few DF-26Cs will still get through. So make sure your B-2s are in the air (they should already be airborne to initiate the attack on China anyway, JASSMs are awesome). If you're lucky the remaining DF-26Cs will only destroy bits of empty tarmac which don't count for point reductions anyway.
And if you are really ambitious, find and destroy the launchers before they launch.
Try doing all of that first....
