The main reason MacArthur declared Manila an "open city" was due to his love for the city and its people. Bataan might possibly have been a decent place to make a defensive stand, IF he had actually concentrated the supplies there according to plan. Instead he had the major supply dumps in a more forward position to better implement his "defend the beaches" plan. The Japanese made a pretty good defensive battle in Manila afer Mac returned...

After not hearing from my opponent for more than a month, he says he wants to continue this game. Right now I'm rather busy so if anyone is interested in taking over this game from me send me a PM. We've gotten only up to Dec. 11 so far.

I agree,MacArthur loves Manila and even after the war he personally intervene in death sentence to gen.Yamashita. Yamashita was hang becouse of Manila and becouse MacArthur wants Yamashita to be hang,personal revenge for Manila.
MacArthur was classical cowboy stile general.

It is easy to say it, not so easy to actually march your boys into Manila from Naga with 45,000 in Lamon Bay behind you. Yeah, they'd be slow leaving down the trail, and maybe you can handle Manila before they get between you and Legaspi. Remember though that the whole thing that is going on in the PI in this case begins with light ground forces for IJ.

The supply they get is irrelevant. I never count on starving them out. Just keep bombing the airfields so they can't build forts.

Yet another annoying design feature. I wonder if GG plays his games?
