Historical Figures?

[Brooklyn]

Hello,

I was just wonder since there will be a chain of commanded in this game and that the game is trying to stay as close to history as possible, will people play as historical figures? I'm not sure how in-depth the chain of commanded is and how high the ranks will go, but for example will the Army of Northern Virginia be lead by Robert E Lee or by General (player name here)?

I think that it will be compulsory for people to have RP names so I guess we will see Robert E Lee running around along with William T Sherman and others
