@QuintusCurtius Sibley’s New Mexico campaign could be a fantastic Western movie. I also think an ultra realistic depiction of “the bloody angle” at Spotsylvania Courthouse - similar the DDay Scene in Saving Private Ryan - could relay the unimaginable butchery of the War.

@Verycoolguy25 @Empty_America It’s an odd cultural aspect that’s common in southern, Protestant towns.
