Help advice required

Hi
I am new to the forum I have joined because I need some advice please
i have an 18mm T&G chip floor and am planning to tile it
I have looked at many comments on different sites and have concluded that its a no no however I am not able to rip it up and start again so I am taking the risk
i don't want to overboard it due to the extra height implications
I have screwed it down every 3 inches and have done a deflection test by standing a glass of water in various places and jumping up and down to access if there is any deflection
i am looking to fix Schluter Ditramat to to the floor using Ardex AF200 and use either Bal rapidset flexible fibre or Mapei Mapeker rapidset
i will be using 30cm x30cm x1cm porcelain tiles
does this all sound ok apart from the chipboard substrate
your comments would be much appreciated please don't shoot me down in flames **yawn**

overboarding with 6mm hardiebacker would be my option, it's not going to heighten the floor significantly.

Thanks for the advice
what adhesive would you recommend to fix it to the chip and which adhesive to stick the tiles down

Glue and screw with a flexible adhesive.
