It was an encounter with the supernatural o.o

Nice to see an online community actually being mature and taking the content seriously. I do enjoy games where the community is like this

To provide some historical context for your video, it's important to understand that all Civil War infantry, excluding actual sharpshooter units, were considered light infantry. This classification differed from that of the Napoleonic wars. Regular infantry troops were often designated for skirmish duty, which could involve a single company, or multiple companies as needed. There weren't any set skirmishers; any regiment could be given this task based on their location on the field and the commander's preference. While there were instances of the best shots in companies being assigned to skirmish duty, this was the exception rather than the rule. The average engagement range between opposing forces was typically between 100 to 120 yards. As the war progressed, the proliferation of rifled muskets increased among the armies. However, the average soldier received no special training on how to utilize these rifled arms differently from the smoothbore muskets they were accustomed to. Once the first volley was fired, the battlefield was often filled with smoke, making it nearly impossible for soldiers to take aimed shots at individual opponents. Eyewitness accounts describe soldiers simply aiming at the horizon. While in a game, you might see a few hundred men on the field; actual battles would have involved tens of thousands. Thus, even taking aim at the horizon with either a smoothbore or a rifled musket would be effective at the ranges mentioned. For a deep dive into Civil War combat, I highly recommend "Civil War Infantry Tactics" by Earl Hess. Nice video!

oooh I'll check that out for sure and thank you for the info! I just finished reading Battle Cry of Freedom by McPherson, but I need to dive more into the actual tactics of the American Civil War as I started my interest in linear warfare with the Napoleonic wars and just started to branch out into the American Civil War. Please let me know if you have any other book recommendations too. I didn't want to spend too much time on the historical aspect since this is a gaming channel, buttttttttt I kinda want to incorporate more history stuff into my gaming videos hehe

9:50 I was in that small group that caused the Union to start running, we was making as much noise as we could to look like a bigger force and they ran like morons! lol

There is usually 1-2 servers full at all times with more during peak hours. On these servers there are people from all over the world on it, that being said I am not sure how solid your ping would be (you can always download it and then if you can't find servers refund it within 2 hours)

The rifled musket shoots high, so it is good practice to aim lower (not to mention we were told to aim lower by our officers) I also believe during the American Civil War soldiers were taught to aim at the waist/crotch level for this very reason. I also own a restored 1861 Springfield in real life and it does indeed shoot high

18:49 great confession.
