I wrote the supports section last as:
 * I didn't know enough about Land Base to do any theorycrafting earlier.
 * Supports don't affect ship locking and my main priority initially was to allocate weaker, but sufficient ships for good clear rates on easier maps, and prevent locking required ships out of E6.

The Support expeditions part should be pretty reliable but there's some chance I screwed up with the Land Base Air Support bits, since by being stuck in Subway™ I haven't actually had a chance to try the mechanic out personally yet. There's a limit to how far I can go based on just the calcs, the wiki page and replay videos on Niconico, so if there's any errors I'll need feedback on that.
