Japan 46 Campaign Supply Sources

RE: Japan 46 Campaign Supply Sources
I am currently also playing this Campaign as well as the Japanese and also realized the odd supply situation regarding the mentioned area. Checked it for smaller Scenarios and Scenarios taking place later into the timeline featuring them and there they indeed do have smaller supply sources what irritated me a bit. From the designer notes I was also assuming that holding the penninsulas as long as possible is one of the important tasks for me.

Although I agree with ComradeP that they are most likely unholdable for the entire campaign, I think it is still a good option to defend them despite this fact. Don't want to go in to too much detail since I am at the moment playing this campaign and my opponent is also in the forums and might read this but I think the many fortifications and coastal and normal artillery batteries on them can seriously delay or even prevent the American player from using his navy during later stages of the campaign until he cleared the discussed areas. Defending there could even slow the entire advance down if he doesn't want to do it without being supported by his ships.

So not having any supply there really mitigates the advantages of this strategy making it way less effective then it would be with even smaller supply sources there. Seeing Tokyo and some islands having supply I  don't thinkt it would be unreasonable having supply sources over there as well.
