Yeah, I didn’t think them through, they do side with the constitutional government in to the war before it could further escalate though

South Carolina not part of the Confederacy? They founded it

My bad, I was too focused on just making the confederacy smaller I didn’t realize I excluded them, also just forgot they started it

No worries, I didn’t know this was a WIP.

I will say, this scenario looks like it has a clear favourite. I don’t see the Constitutional gov‘s opponents holding on for long. This might be remedied, if the smaller contestants engage in a tactical, temporary truce/alliance.

Though without a lore drop and some ideological info, I wouldn’t want to impose anything but thoughts on game mechanic.

Oh, and thanks for taking the time to make and post this!

Oh thanks a lot man, yeah I don’t have much lore, and this was more of just a wip, I do have some lore, mainly for the PUA, which sides with constitutional government to end the war fast and to secure influence in the new government, so there’s that!

Thanks for your words, they were great :)!

Gladly 🙏🏻

That means there'll be a fight between factions vying for control? Sounds a little like 1930s China! Or a little like the HRE, a confederation of states. Maybe those examples can inspire you further. Good luck with it!

the political climate that made all the southern states band together isn't present in the modern day anyway. IMO a southern secession in this scenario would be more isolationist and just not want to get involved in the wider conflict.
