yeah I'd say it'd be a league ahead of what the Union could muster. Until they stole one.

hold on, let me write a light novel about this and send it to A-1 and DEEN

You could win any way with this, especially something as huge as instant communication. Even if you were outnumbered 100 to 1. There's a reason US marine squads kill like 10x their squad number, and all they have is better weapons, training, and some nifty gadgets

Yes on account that it would've allowed them to properly coordinate the Heartland Offensive and Maryland Campaign to drive Union forces out of Virginia and Kentucky, which would've derailed Union efforts to cut the Mississippi and take the war into the Deep South as well as put Washington DC under siege.

The real question is how many pregnant Anne Franks would we have in a timeline where Tim Cook is President of the Confederate States of America and would any of them be married to King Charles II of Spain?

Yes
Instant unstoppable communication would be OP as fuck

If you were outnumbered 100 to 1 how the fuck would instant communication help you? Who would you call, yourself?

If they had Iphones they could've conqueror the entire fucking world

None of you niggers know why the South actually lost, do you?

Hint hint faggots it's not a problem you could solve with cell phones.

Also the telegraph was already a thing.

Giving real time battlefield communications would be a colossal force multiplier. The Union "only" outbuilt the south by about 3-4:1, and yes, having the ability to instantly coordinate all your maneuvers in a battlefield miles wide would be worth more than that. Cell phones, even dumb cell phones, make the confederacy near invincible until they run out of power.

After 1 day of frantic amazement, the iphones all run out of power.

Nothing is changed, no strategy was ever built and no one knew what a google or an internet was to look up future news or technology.
