    Anyone else notice a much higher ratio of young children who play on the Union rathe

    It might just be a coincidence, but every time I've come across a "squeaker" in War of Rights, it's on the union team.
    Has anyone else noticed this? Does anyone have an idea as to why the union side attracts more of the younger players?

    My only guess is they're too young to understand the two sides and just see the Union as the good guys who won.

    Winning is more important than Fighting for a Cause that has been berated for a century and a half.
    Revisionist History and Political Correctness hold sway over Facts and Personal Beliefs.
    NOTE: This is not a discussion of Right vs Wrong but rather MY Indictment of the Mentality of today's Youth.

    I will state once again ...
    Some say this is a War about States Rights but I think it is actually … A War of Rights.
    Both sides are so entrenched in their belief that they are Right, God is on their side and their Cause is pure and just.

    My guess is they were raised in a time when not everybody was still racist.

    They seem to like the uniforms..... I just do not understand the Union side running like headless chickens to the point. No formations no tactics just running forward in a straight line.
    Then they all spawn in as officers.. Then you have those Majors that like to sing instead of fighting. Glad that my heart lays with the CSA.
