Civil War (Map Game)

This is a strategy game about the American Civil War. Each person will be a state. It starts after the election of Abraham Lincoln in late 1860. Slave States DO NOT NEED TO BE IN THE CONFEDERACY. Delaware and Maryland were examples of slave states in the Union in OTL. Just saying I am new here, so I am reluctant to restrict who can be mods and who can be key states.

Rules

General Rules

• Be Plausible. The more Northern the slave state, the more plausible it is that it stays with the Union.
• 1 turn every two days. Each turn is one quarter of a year. Turns start in January 1861.
• Maximum of 1 state per person.
• No state can form its own country. Only Union or Confederacy.
• States on the ocean, gulf of Mexico, or a major river begin with 10,000 Army men, 100 artillery, 5,000 cavalry, 100 gunboats, and 10 ironclads. All other states begin with 12,500 Army men, 6,500 cavalry, and 150 artillery.
• Each turn, you can grow THREE of the following (You can improve the same thing more than once):
  • +3000 Army men
  • +2 Ironclads
  • +20 Gunboats
  • +75 Artillery pieces
  • +1500 Calvary
  • Economy
  • Infrastructure
• States act alone but work together. The Union and Confederacy should each have a government page, where it takes a majority of states to vote on laws.
• Each State has one general, who helps chances of winning a battle.
• Turns start when 15 states have been filled.
• an algo will be used to complete wars
• since this game is based on military strategy, every major front will have its own map.
• if your state is taken over by the opposite nation, you can continue playing for that nation, however, sabotaging will not be tolerated.
• the USA wins if they reunify the entire nation, the CSA wins if a) the USA recognizes their independence, or 2, they reunite the USA, under CSA control.
• while capitals are importet, the game will not end if one is captured

starting map

Pay attention to Rivers. Key Rivers are Potomac, Ohio, Mississippi, and Savannah.
