What do you think about some indians factions ?

We can import some indians models from america or other mods.
For example Lakota mod have some apacheans units.

In a first time, I think that indians could be like rebels (slaves) on great campain.

I think they should be part of the Confederate unit roster, only recruitable in certain areas or buildings. However, i'm not sure if Indians also fought for the North.

Oops, sorry missed that. I remember a sceen in Cold Mountain when a Confederate Indian fought a black Union soldier. And until your information, i did not know indians fought for the North.

I think indians, Britain and Mexico etc would be fantastic additions to this already superb mod and would add depth to a campaign.

Some new units on the Indian?

**Eohelm** · January 11, 2012, 08:52 AM

I believe making them a faction would add a depth to the mdo that would be really fun. Maybe for the sake if historical accuracy nerf them a bit on the strategy map? Otherwise, I think it would be interesting.

So far we have Sioux, Apache, Comanche, Navajo, and Cheyenne. The Northwest does not have any factions so what do you guys think of a Pacific Northwest Indian faction? Maybe the Nez Perce or the Cayuse?

**Majordea** · November 21, 2014, 03:00 PM

I think that the Indians largely held a place and time during the civil war and that they played a large part even if they simply bowed out of the competition. Therefore I would add the nez perce as they were known as a military power at that time. The cayuse as well so maybe both would be a good implementation for variety.

For information, Osprey publishing have produced a book in their Warrior series on this subject, Osprey Warrior 105 Native American Mounted Rifleman 1861-1865. This covers the Indians who fought for both Union and Confederacy in the Civil War, Especially those of the 'Five Civilised Nations' - Cherokee, Creek, Choctaw, Chickasaw and Seminoles, and also gives some overview of the Civil War in the Indian Territory in general.
