It seems that in real history Japan din't start to consruct an airfield on Shortland Islands until November 26, 1942. The 18 Construction Unit (Kenselsui Tai), under the command of Engineer Lieutenant Commander Norihiko Ozaki, arrived on the island on November 26, 1942, and British prisoners arrived a month later from Rabaul and started to build an airfield on Ballale Island, Shortland Islands.

Sounds like you've got a bug. You shouldn't be too suprised, the pacific islands were full of them. It's quite historical so I'd say just continue on as it's all part of the experience...

But on a serious note, toggle off expanding the airfield for a turn.. then toggle it back on during the next. I'm guessing that will kill the bug but sometimes they are quite adept in evasive manuevers...

Might also want to try toggling on expanding something else in the meantime, just to see...

[B]full units [/B][/QUOTE]

The crucial information may be exactly which units they are (like, for example, 10th naval construction battalion). I'm just noodling around for information here in case something pops up that may reveal what the problem is. Don't mind me, it's just what I do.
