The advantages of this method is a potentially stronger starting position for the ACW, but might also ruin it if you make a mistake or are just really unlucky. If the war takes too long, you might also end up with a weak starting position and your Dixie troops far away from their motherland, where they easily get defeated. This is kinda risky, since you have very limited options of building troops without making the Yankees way stronger than they already are. You can declare war on Mexico and get Texas to join the Union as a Slave State, making it likely to join the CSA during the Civil War.
This way of preparing for the ACW is the safer, easier way and you should try it if you haven't played the ACW before. Cuba can be chosen to be a slave state and will often join CSA.ĭO NOT, and this is very important, add Mexico to your sphere because it will result in them helping the Union during the ACW, making it nearly impossible to win. Start with the Dragoons, since they will crush the 3000 Dixie dragoons as soon as the ACW breaks out if you keep them, and continue with the 9000 Yankee troops.Įnact the Ostend Manifesto because it will greatly benefit the CSA during the ACW by ruining the Union's relations to the Great Powers. If you want to do this, I recommend disbanding the Yankee armies as you raise new Dixie troops, but do not disband them all at once, or the UK might declare war on you. You can just sit around, waiting for Dixie soldiers to promote and build brigades out of them, keeping Consciousness low in the meantime. To do this, you should use any possible decision and event to keep Consciousness low since high average Consciousness raises the odds of the Civil War breaking out. It doesn't matter whether they are dixie or yankee.Īs getting Soldier POPs for raising Southern soldiers takes its time, you should try to delay the American Civil War for as long as possible. It's important to know, that all the units that come from soldier pops which are from CSA cores, will join the CSA when the war starts.
You start out with one army of 12000 Yankee soldiers, one army of 12000 Dixie soldiers, one Army of 6000 Yankee Dragoons and 3000 Dixie dragoons, and another army of 9000 Yankee soldiers. The United States of America starts out as quite a powerful nation and one of the few Democracies in the world of 1836.
