MnB:NW has 200 player servers. Or, it could just be a "raid" mode where one team is a small band of soldiers attacking a town and the other team defends it.

I guess it might have to do with the modern political climate. Then again... you can play as Nazis but not as Confederates?

it's probably something to do with the good guys being republicans.

Why are there no videogames about the spanish civil war
Why are there no videogames about the english civil war
Why are there no videogames about the Russian civil war
Why are there no videogames in which I can play as a cute french girl and purge the Anglo fucking shits from my country
Why are there no non-strategy games about any period of Roman history
Why are there no videogames about the Sino-Japanese war and the Russo-Japanese war
Why are there no videogames about The Troubles
And a shitton more

You're not special southern lads

The American Civil War is an event that most people around the world are somewhat familiar with, so it would be a more lucrative option than any of those. Technically Ryse: Son of Rome is a non-strategy game set during Roman history.

That's really more of a cowboy game. You wouldn't call The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly a Civil War film.

It was perhaps the cheapest feeling game I've ever played.

I think there's a mount and blade mod for it

If you mean they know it happened, sure. Beyond that not so much.

Civil War Generals II is a turn based game from late 90s era, also there is a module on M&B called North & South First Manassas. Not sure if its active anymore
