Confederate Soldier

combative obedient disciplined factionally loyal forceful loyal

Confederate soldiers in the War Games' American Civil War simulation. They fill the ranks of Southern forces, seizing ground from Union troops, managing captives like Jamie McCrimmon and Jennifer Buckingham, and following field commanders such as Leroy alongside higher directives from overseers like Von Weich. Combat-ready and swift to shift stances, they claim quick victories in ambushes before enforcing recaptures, their loyalty locked to factional orders and military hierarchy. Some soldiers are explicitly identified as 'Unidentified Negro Soldier' in the narrative, but all operate under the same Confederate chain-of-command and perform identical functions (e.g., guarding prisoners, suppressing talk, maintaining order).
