Hood's Texas-Arkansas Bde. has Horse Arty. in the game, however, at least it is an Infantry unit in the update patch and not a Cav. unit as it was previously.

Another thing, after the USA took Richmond, the CSA Generals kept showing-up in Richmond!!!
 
That is not to good, not fun etc.
 
In the old ACW PC Game by IMagic, if you lost your capital then you had to deignate a new one.  It is very mind numbing to see CSA Gens. being generated from a USA city and province, plus it's a long trip for those CSA Gens. that are assigned to the Trans Miss. Theater on top of it all.  Maybe having Montgomery, AL a a start point for Western CSA Gens. would be more playable and fun, and perhaps Springfield or chicago for the western theater USA Gens.

Good catch. Any suggestions on an attribute or two for them?

Maybe 'Dreaded', 'Chargers', 'Blasted', and 'Brave', and perhaps 'Wild', and/or maybe 'Steady' and/or 'Disciplined', and perhaps 'Sustained Volley'.

Those are all special abilities -- I was asking about attributes, such as baggage train, medical, etc. etc.

Yeah, I confused 'Abilities' with 'Attributes'. Thanx for telling me what is what as it saves me looking in the manual.

Maybe 'Medical' for the Texians since that would give them staying power and cut down their casualties making them a tough unit to face.

Okay, I gave them Medical and Signal Corps, plus I kept "Brave" while replacing "Wild" with "Dreaded." Now that's a unit worth having.

Sounds good. They were pretty good. Chris
