was just looking at objective values in the vyazma campaign and noticed the town of Dorogobuzh named twice about 20k away from each other at hexes 61,95 & 65,116. both are worth 1000.

It is not an error there are actually two towns with the same name on the original 1948 US army maps used to create the map. Having worked on a number of these East Front maps this is a quite common occurrence. I think these stand out because they are objective hexes.

Then it must have been an error on that US map....If I remember correctly, that northern one of them was actually called something else..will take a look on it.
