[Hinkel]

Why a new vote?
But well... For southern Rights! :D

[CivilWarMan]

Well the other one is 5 months old.

[Soulfly]

Déjà-vu....but i am still defending Virginia

[Steiner]

I always seem to have a weakness for the underdog: CSA!

[Bravescot]

Still got to vote Union.

[Ry1459]

The Union forever!

[CrabbedSun10]

Union or nothing

[Lackay]

I fight for Human Rights, Go Union

[Hairywarhero]

The Union forever!

Good lad ;)

[Arcturus]

Union or nothing

Well said.

[Rithal]

I fight for Human Rights, Go Union

One could argue that no one fought for human rights until after the emancipation proclamation, which wasn't issued until 1863. Even then, I would say few Union soldiers actually fought purely to free slaves held in Confederate states. At this point in the war, most soldiers fought to preserve the Union. I would classify the freeing of slaves as one of the many results of Union victory, but not the main goal in the grand scheme of things.

I agree, but its clear a confederate victory would not have meant a freeing of slaves anytime soon in the south

True. Maybe eventually, but not any time soon.

[MilitantMonkey]

I would actually disagree. Historically, we see that Industrial "Revolutions" sprouting out excessively after the Civil War. This in and of itself would have ultimately ceased slavery. Also, saying the Confederacy were to win the War Between the States, the financial side of things were not so good, thus slaves would have been sold off to either the richer communities or freed all together. In the end, no later than the 1900s would slavery had been nearly non-existent except to the higher class. My opinion though, it didn't happen, so we'll never know.

I disagree, the industrial revolution actually just caused slavery to shift to other classes and races, it even sparked child labor. If slavery was still around slave owners would have owned factories instead of plantations. So there for i believe that slavery would have continued until such a time when international pressure, or pressure from the northern states would have forced it to cease.

C.s.a. ^^ :d

The reality is, we will never know :/ There are so many factors in that situation that if one changed, it could mean a whole different outcome. I would like to think that slavery wouldn't have persisted long in the south, but like I said, there is no way of knowing.

[Bravescot]

All I know is Union won South lost and this upset many people

[Hairywarhero]

Cry more please :D

I don't really know how upsetting it is. I think it was better that the north won, but sometimes my pride along with other southerner's pride can get in the way of that unfortunately.

[Hairywarhero]

[Aniallator]

If the Union has too many people, I'm happy to play Johnny Reb too.

[Bravescot]

I don't mind playing as Johnny reb but it's Billy Yank all the way for me!

[Hairywarhero]

Prefer Blue anyday

[Rithal]

I'm honestly fine with fighting for either side. They both had their own just reasons to fight.

[Devmc99]

I'm really surprised that Union is winning by a lot. But, who cares, faugh a ballagh!

[Hairywarhero]

Ah let us have our fun. When the game comes out you're going to have to get use to it on a much larger and worse scale then this.

[Rithal]

What i want to know who are the Neutral people!

Don't judge them. Some people just enjoy the Civil War in general without picking sides :D

[Bravescot]

It takes away form the enjoy them of the discussion on why you picked North or South though.

[Lackay]

Don't judge them. Some people just enjoy the Civil War in general without picking sides :D

but if you dont pick a side, then your no better than the Swiss!

[Rithal]

but if you dont pick a side, then your no better than the Swiss!

What's wrong with the Swiss good sir!?!

[Hairywarhero]

[Bravescot]

They have the most amount of guns per person in the whole world and one of the lowest gun crime rates.

[Swaggy_Putin]

[Simon445]

Last time I checked... C.S.A was winning ?

[Ol Stonewall Jackson]

I will be confederate just like my ancestors....then again we had some on both sides since WV wasn't exactly sure what we wanted. I suppose Ill do both.

[Skipper]

I am the german Sellsword :D Whoever pays me best get's my rifle and Service :D

[RhettVito]

#Redneck Nation #Dixie #For Dixie

[Dohvakiin]

Ye.. im allways be against USA. so.. all clear.

[Pvt.Scott]

YES the union is winning in votes last vote the majority was confederate
DAMN REBELS

[Legochiel]

I wish neutral was winning :)

[Pvt.Scott]

But that wouldn't be fun would it. that would mean everyone doesn't care about this game and doesn't care which side they think they would be on. AND THE CHAT WOLD BE THE MOST BORING CHAT EVER!

[Ol Stonewall Jackson]

Scott I think it would be more people from neutral states like WV who were split in support. I'm considered neutral and can go either way.

[zimmer1lb]

Once agin.............Confederacy.
