Fortification modifier 2 means twice the fortification?
If so, no wonder I lost so many troops without really making a dent.

Remember that the modifier is an abstracted strategical modifier and not a tactical one and fortification is more than just building trenches and fortifications.

It is generally more difficult to attack in a swamp than in a plain, that is just the way it is.

It is definitely more difficult to build fortifications in swampy areas. It is also much more difficult to hide in a swamp from shelling.
And in general in Papua New Guinea it was more like a swampy rainforest. IMO swamp are something like this:

Swamp is 0.5 hit mod? Read about the Buna Gona campaign from WW2 in Papua New Guinea. I think the Australians and Americans found the Japanese fortifications quite formidable. Personally I would think Swamps are easier for a defender than 0.5. Swamps present quite a few problems for an attacker, especially in these days of high tech equipment that might not like the conditions.

I know this post, but I don't see the table with the information. By the way, I noticed that all the screenshots that Steve posted in messages were gone.

I've attached it as an image file here in the meantime.

I remember somewhere there was a table with Dominant Terrain To Hit Modifier. Now I can't find this table. Wiki link leads to 404 page
