A war game from Victory Games (1983). Game description is:
"From the epic campaigns of the East to the ceaseless skirmishing in Texas and the Western Territories - and throughout the vast lands in between - the American civil War was a conflict memorable above all else for its staggering scope and for its legendary leaders. A dynamic portrait of this immense struggle, from its infancy to its final gasp, The Civil War depicts the nation and its leaders as no game has done before. Players recreate history on a map stretching from the Eastern shores through the untamed lands of New Mexico, maneuvering and engaging their armies according to the carefully drawn abilities of over 60 individually represented commanders, as ocean-going and riverine units battle for control of critical waterways.
The Civil War can be played as an entire campaign or as year-long scenarios. The key to victory lies in the allotment of command. Each player must determine in advance where his major thrusts will occur - in the East, West, or Trans-Mississippi Theater. Once command resources are entrusted, it is up to the individual commanders to gain the initiative, move their forces, and engage the enemy. The poor commander is likely to find himself demoted or removed while the likes of Lee, Grant, Jackson and Sherman may be promoted to positions of destiny."
