Divided Once More: The Second American Civil War

With war becoming unavoidable, the Union of old cannot be maintained as states begin to squabble amongst themselves. However, for each side’s version of the new Union to be fully put into place, the war must first be won. As of now, while many of the states have pledged themselves to either cause, many more are still neutral towards the factions, biding their time till the opportune moment.

It is in this circumstance that you, delegates, must push forward your ideal for the new Union. Through both the barrel of a gun and the ink from a pen, you must secure the United States by garnering the support of the neutral governors and defeating the opposing faction in the field of battle.

Even though the embers of war have reached their peak across the United States, the matter of governance will remain to be one of the largest operations for each faction.

Unlike any war after the first Civil War, the frontlines are not an ocean’s length away; they can be seen on the ranches and the farms, sometimes right outside the cities themselves. In such a situation, the home front is maintained on a thin string, threatening to snap at any moment. Especially with enemy sympathisers within each state’s borders, riots, strikes, and internal rebellions might spell a quicker end than any opposing force could ever bring. 

Thus, it is up to you, delegates, to hold the morale of your people in face of this catastrophe. Hopefully bringing your side to success.
