*The USA is in civil disorder at gamestart, which breeds a very unique gamestart. The Union controls 5 centers but only starts with 4 units. Although California and Boston are controlled centers, these are not home (build) centers. New York is a home center, but New York is not controlled by the Union at gamestart. Because of the riots in NYC, the Union must "capture" this center to recover it as a build center.

Native Federation

Home Centers: Apache, Comanche, Souix

Units: A-Apache, A-Comanche, A-Souix

The Souix, Commanche and Apache comprise a land-locked confederation of Native Americans. They do not posess the power to build fleets, but if their ghost dance is successful enough they may force others to build fleets for them. Specifically, if the Indian player conquers Boston or California, the first of these centers that is occupied by the Indian becomes a legal build center for the Indian player. However, the Indian player may only build fleets in these centers.

  Neutral Armies

British F-Newfoundland

In face to face games, we usually print out a large map and use armies and fleets from a standard Diplomacy game. This is the reason the colors above are suggested. Canada (White), Union (Blue), CSA (Lt. Blue), Texas (Red), Indians (Green), Mexicans (Gold), Neutral (Black).
