<blockquote id="quote"><font size="3" face="book antiqua" id="quote">quote:<hr height="1" noshade id="quote">I am also concerned about a confederate army that is larger than the Union. There is no way that could have happened. Sorry Gary, I don't agree with you on that one no matter how bad the political situation was in the north. According to Shelby Foote and many other authors the confederacy was having man power problems by the end of 1861. I don't need to pull the population figures here but the confederates could never produce an army larger than the North. Everyone knows this except maybe McClellan and Pinkerton.
It was the confederates that passed the first conscription act not the Union to make up for this deficit. And they never were able to make up for it.
Still, this game is light years ahead of "Forge of Freedom" with its Confederate armies of hundreds of thousands of men.

I agree here. No chance to 'wear down' the ANV as Grant did to end the war, unless I need to learn more on the relatio between restricted supply and inability to raise new units/repair existing?
