I have noticed that there are no Missouri regiments on either side and Think it would be a good idea to add because Missouri fought on both sides.

Dear Hinkel,
I wrote this letter because i don't understand your words about " But I don't see any advantage of adding another union infantry unit, which looks pretty identical to other federal units". Sir, you added 9 Ohio regiments, but none from West Virginia. I ask you to change your policy in this regard. We would be very grateful if our regiment were in the game. I hope that you will understand my request and will not appeal to the previous argument because it has lost its force.
Please note that there are many communities that are left without their uniforms. Just like us. Of course, I understand that the developers have their own vision of what they consider necessary, but I hope very much to change this vision at least in this matter.
Thank you for your reply.
Since we added South Mountain to the game and featuring the following skirmish maps:
Garland's Stand at Fox’s Gap, Hatch's Attack at Turner’s Gap and Colquitt's Defence at Turner’s Gap, with 2 other skirmish scenarios coming up, we had to add a bunch of new Ohio regiments to the game, since these Ohio regiments took part in the historic attacks we added. While it would have been nice to have some more unique regiments, its not possible to add a West Virginia unit to these skirmish maps, when there was no active regiments engaged there.
I want it to be known that the current 23rd NY uniforms in game are wrong. This is how companies I & K would have looked during 1861 the whole regiment didn't get Zouave uniforms. There would be a mixture between normal federal uniforms and then the zouave uniforms the video and pictures below show this.
