~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Introduction ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
We are proud to announce our third release of American Civil War Mod for Empire Total War.
This third release will be updated from time to time and can be seen as our goal of bringing you in touch with the American Civil War.
Having in mind mod limits and game-play changes it is the most we could do to represent the history of Civil War.
In some cases we had to compromise between historical correctness and a good challenging game-play.
We are all slaves of the game engine.
Further updates will strive to improve those aspects too and will also add additional stuff.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Overview ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
