Construction Engineers, Base forces and HQ will raise support levels
and allow for base growth and increase the range of flights as the
airfields grow in size, also if your base force has radar you will increase
your ability to intercept incoming aircraft and ships.
You will have too build your airfield to size 1 at least too allow
for aircraft too operate and recieve transports and bombers on
supply runs.
If your support is in the red then you are undersupported and
the base and troops will not function at 100% decreasing your ability
too build and repair your base as well as decrease your percentage
of available aircraft to fly and repair.
You have to bring in supplies to support the troops and to build up
the bases as it takes a lot of supply to increase ports, airfields and
fortifications as well as repair damage from bombardments and airstrikes.
If the number is in red or orange you are running out of supply and
the troops will start too rashion supply, further decreasing there ability
too function and recoup from fatiuge and malaria and cause fatiuge.
You can fly in heavy bombers and transports to trickle in supply but
this will not give enough supply too have the base function fully so I would
suggest this.
If you are in frontline combat for the base I would form a fast transport task force
comprised of CA'S, DD'S and APD'S and load supplies and construction engineers and send them too the base too build up the airfield too size one minimum.
Then send in C47 transports and heavy bombers with supply to build up your stockpile, you can also use your transport planes or fast transport task forces to
also bring in HQ and base forces though you will need to ship the radar from the
base forces on ships as it is too large for aircraft.
If your base is secure from attack then send in transports loaded with supply and
stockpile it up, though if your port is 0 - 1 then you will lose supply and waste alot of it
as the base can't support a huge amount of it, so building up ports is as essential
as building your airfields.
The numbers for supplies required means that you need to have that amount
of supply minimum for every month of base operation not including any
repairs needed from bombardments, air operations and aircraft repairs.
also as you bring in more troops you will need more monthly supply so
I would watch the numbers closely as the base proggresses.
Hope this helps....
