I was looking over the objective cities and I noted that Knoxville is not an objective city. I find this very odd considering how many times Lincoln ordered his Armies to take Knoxville and the determental effect not taking the place had on the careers of more than one Union General.

I also noted that there isn't really much Union sentiment in the areas around Knoxville which doesn't match the historical record.

One easy mod would be to make Knoxville an important objective, this would force both sides to fight for Eastern Tennessee like happened historically.

It should at least be a Strategic city (not the same as an objective), in lieu of some other irrelevant strategic city in the north.

You are quite correct. Knoxville should be made a semi-important Union objective, one way or the other.

In the West 1862 theater scenario I did make it a VP city.
In the Upcoming Kentucky scenario it is a Strategic and objective site.

I do agree with you jeff as lincolns' city was on a strategic rail line that linked the East to the West (or West to East) and should be a major objective.

Knoxville is a VP region too.
