Make Youngstown, Ohio a Metal/Steel producing province

In America Homefront, Youngstown Ohio should be a steel producing province, due to the historical significance of Youngstown as one of the largest steel producing cities in America during the WW2 period.

the devs were too busy on fixing bugs

they couldnt afford to add more features that could result in even more bugs (also time + efforts consuming)

"Hate, union, freedom, justice, equality, war, peace, violence, blood. It is but a perfect mixture on destiny and our lives. It is for the mass we trust and for the mass we contribute, or to selfishly to personal greed we follow, it is up to your choices on what mixture you want. My mixture is a bit of everything with madness and humility in it, the virtues will black and sinful, just like I per say." - Kaiser Luther Ernst Willienburg.

Don't expect a lot of historical/geographic accuracy with the resources and the regions. On the 22 player map, Pittsburgh gets food instead of metal and Stalingrad produces goods instead of oil. Just consider the availability of oil in general on any map compared to historical distribution of production. Game balance was the bigger concern over historical accuracy.

You are right. Although there's (probably) nothing wrong with making Youngstown as a metal province, it's just simply not one of the devs' priorities.
Stay Sweet!

If you wanted historically accurate resources then the US and USSR would basically have infinite amounts and would be unstoppable. The only things really stopping them from storming their respective regions was anti-imperialist ideology (apart from Philippines and such, but no wanting to invade half the planet) in the US and incompetent leadership in the USSR costing millions of lives and almost losing to Germany.
