      Funnily enough the Confederates were very lucky in 1st Bull Run
      Many of the Rebel regiments were experienced , having fought in South America as mercenaries
      However , they were used to bayonet charging peasants
      They charged into a Union Line and was immediately shattered from a single volley

      @@AverageJoe___ He has no source because it isn't true. The Confederate regiments at First Manassas were state militia regiments or recently formed volunteer units. A number of them were led by officers who'd experienced fighting in the Mexican War around 13-15 years earlier. This was true for many of the regiments on the Union side as well, as most of the US Army's regular units were still deployed in the Western Territories against the myriad Indian nations.
      That being said, a number of wealthy Confederates fled to South America after the war, mostly to the Kingdom of Brazil, where slavery was still legal.

    For those who don't know, "The Bluecoats" is a Belgian comic that features two union soldiers, the ones on the menu screen, having shenanigans through the theatres of the civil war. I never imagined that someone would want to make a game based on it, especially a risk tbs that features nothing from the original comics...

    Fun fact tunique bleu (blue coat) is a very famous belgian comic about the US civil war that has been going on since the 60's without interruption and will probably outlast us all. So if you want to read a somewhat accurate description of the New York riot with so-so historical description I'm sure you can pirate it.

    Having played the original years ago It's amazing how little they chose to add or embellish. The original game had just enough content to be a fun 2 player boardgame you could play with a friend for 15 minutes, but not much else. This version had decades of advancement in the industry to draw from and all they did was add one new mechanic with the FPS segments.

    Fun fact: the rifle you see in the fps mode is an actual rifle. Obviously this one is a cartoonified version but it is a semi-accurate depiction of the Spencer rifle. It's an early lever action that required you to manually cock the hammer after every shot unlike the Henry and its successors which used the bolt to cock the hammer for you. As shown in the game, rounds are loaded through the butt of the stock.

    Oboe out here acknowledging other global shit happened in the 1860’s besides the US Civil War… You cultured gentleman.
    Speaking of the 1860’s, oboe should definitely consider playing SGS Taiping. You know that other civil war. The civil war whose death toll goes into the tens of millions…
    The games a little janky but pretty fun :)

    Train fight for the NES port was such a pain. The defender player had tons of slightly weaker lives while you had one and had to do pinpoint inputs to survive through it. Kind of sad to see the sidescrolling bit of that replaced with a weak unity looking FPS.

    The NES version of this from back in the day, was interesting, but the battles were impossible to control with a regular controller vs. the AI. You could only control one unit at a time, the CPU controlled all three at once. Yes, they would have the infantry advancing at the same time as their cavalry was charging and the cannon firing. Your best bet was to ignore your own artillery, and try to do everything with your infantry. Unless you had a three-stack army, you didn't stand much of a chance.
    I see very little has changed. Sad. They could have done so much with the basic premise.
