Any Western Theater campaign, but especially Chickamauga, Stones River, and Shiloh in that order.

I have done from Nashville to Chattanooga and Chattanooga to Atlanta. Would like to do Sterling Prices 1864 campaign to take St. Louis. Just need more cavalry for that.

While these are all cool, what gets me excited right off is the Antietam campaign. Hits all my buttons.

For me it is the Tullahoma through Chickamauga campaigns.

Not much of a campaign player myself, but I notice the '62 Shenandoah Valley Campaign keeps coming up, and I can see why.
