The main reason why the civil war was bloody was because it was fought by armies with no great military history or traditions. There were no hussars, no cuirasses. Neither army had experience fighting a modern enemy. Of course it became a bloodbath, like watching two drunks punch each other tired, no skill.
- ArkyBeagle 10y agoI'd say the weapons completely out matched anyone's ability to cope with them until quite late in the war. By that light, I'd say nobody alive had experience fighting a modern army. The US has always had a charming dread of standing armies.
