You need a "Cone of Sanitation" to take care of that problem. Maybe 99 (NO - not Wayne Gretsky - the pretty one) can type for you and work your mouse.

The pace here will pick up again when the Hankow defenders are overcome, and even more when Shanghai is cleared. That last will take a while because of the defenses and because Chinese Army units will be doing the great majority of the lifting with their lack of heavy weapons.

Will transport loaded TFs unload at all at a port that is 100% damaged? Can NS overcome the lack of a wharf?

I don't know for certain, but it should help. Naval support and shore party abstract things like lighters and small craft IIRC. But even after the port gets repaired the engineers along are needed. Virtually all the engineers are marching away to the next targets.

No preparations for Kobe landings. If/when we get there it will be overland. I figure them asking "where's the beef?" is good way to keep the troops motivated!

We have a number of warships heading into the yard for repairs and some for upgrades. There are lots of destroyers still to upgrade and I want to keep at least some upgrades rolling along. The needed repairs are already enough to make it prudent to not form convoys for Kumamoto just yet. Luckily there were few attack transports damaged badly enough to require repairs in the Kochi invasion, so allowing several days for many of the warship repairs and upgrades to get underway should be sufficient. That will also allow time for the air bases at Kochi, Tokara Retto, and Yakushima to build and be more of a factor when the Kumamoto invasion lands. We will also move PacAO from Daito Shoto to Yakushima where it will be much closer to assist the invasion it is prepared for. The airborne units ready for the Saishu To assault are being moved to Hangchow, where the airfield complex is being rapidly expanded to accommodate the mission.

Status: offline 		Home Islands west. No surface combat today, but a number of night air raids on the fleet carriers. Lots of support units landed at Kochi, more underway. Lots of air support is now on site so we have moved in 60 Hellcat night fighter variants. Tonight's air raids are in for tougher flying. The first two groups of the NZ Corsairs have also flown in to take up short range daytime CAP. They are the F4U-1D model, with a service rating of 1.

Tokara Retto now sports a size 2 air base and two squadrons of P-47D25 have moved in to supplement the two P-47D2 squadrons.

I can't move from Clark to Manila nor from Manila to Clark because both sides of that hex border are owned by Japan. His troops at Clark are getting a supply (-), so hopefully supplies available are a trickle.
