You guys do also realize that during the Civil War barbaric tactics were used. They would sit in an open field and shoot at each other while in a line. But in the Revolutionary War mainly Guerrila Tactics were used

@onewhitebaby i would say guerrila tactics were a bit more barbaric in the civil war they still had strategies and positioning it was very professional except towards the end of the war when the union started buring cities down and the south started getting gruesome. but nonetheless i would rather fight in war that we thought we would win!

Civil War was -way- more dramatic and interesting.
sharley
And wayyyyyyy more horrible.
Tyler
If you think about this way More then twice as many lives were lost in the civil war so you would have a 50% higher chance of surviving the war.

The Civil War was a shameful spot in our nation's history, while the Revolution was our first victory.
Alex
I dont think it was shameful. I mean we fought to give rights to those whom deserved them. I think the south was shameful but the north was just in their acts of war
MakoBeach
@alex What about states' rights eh? We're still fighting over them! Slavery was wrong but it wasnt the only thing the south went to war over and plus the union wasnt even fighting for black rights in the beginning they still had slave states far into the war!
p01arb33r
the south will rise again!!!
Alex
No they won't and by law they can't.
Lavitts
And we will put you down. Again.
liz lizzerson
Not sure if trolling or really that stupid.
MakoBeach
@alex a state can secede actually but its a lengthy thing and may take years plus they would need support etc. they made it so its really hard no impossible
Garrett Indigi
You like dick in your mouth mr p01arb33r?
warface363
yea? well, civil war was also WAAAAAAAAY more costly, casualty wise. and depending on where you live, you would either be for slavery or aganist, none of that "i'd move north" crap. if you're in the south, you're confederate in this scenario.
D3athBecomes
That's hardly fair. Especially considering the war was originally "To protect the Union" for the North and "To drive out the Northern invaders" for the south (Southern forces even had black soldiers fighting for them). Lincoln forced it towards slavery to keep Britain out of the picture. And I'm sure plenty of people then moved north/south so they could fight on the other side, such as General Lee himself, who was fighting for the national army until Virginia seceded.
SAUCY SCOTSMAN
@D3athBecomes All of the officers in the Confederate army were 'fighting' for the 'national' army before the war started.
SAUCY SCOTSMAN
Oh, and sorry to be here again, but the South did not have blacks fighting for them. Even they weren't dumb enough to give the people they suppressed guns.
Zachary Powell
@D3athBecomes The only reason Lncoln did anything with the slaves was because he needed to hurt the south. In fact, before he issued the emancipatiob proclamation, Lincoln told the south that if they surrendered, current slave states would be able to keep their slaves.
Azer Faraclas
I think the Revolutionary War would be much more exciting.
MakoBeach
The colonies was like 90% gonna lose the only reason they did win was because Britain didnt think they could put up a fight plus fighting +3 wars already (and the americans had to live shitholes for winter while the hessians partied)
Schroeder
For the Right and Loyal side, of course. Besides, casualties and atrocities were considerably worse in the Civil War.
HoodHustla
Long as I get to fight under Ulysses and not Lee.
rubberlikewalrus
you'd choose a drunk over a current successful general
jakeb27
@walrus I'd argue that Grant was the more successful, seeing as he won the war and all...
MakoBeach
@jakeb27 i think walrus was talking about when the war started, grant failed his class in west point and even served under lee in the mexican war so lee was by far more succesful
theTexan
Grant used pyrrhic tactics that resulted in massive casualties. A far greater percentage and number of his soldiers died than Lee's. The only reason Grant won was through shear numbers. Still want to fight for Grant?
gills
yeah I'd fight for England
Devin Bryant
Only to kill brits

im black so id probably be in chains tied up to a post somewhere during the civil war ..or out in some field

Where the hell do you think you'd be during the revolutionary war?! At least with the civil war you're closer to slavery being abolished.
Lavitts
That's it. I'm aiming for you. *bang* Oh that's right. Muskets.
Roze
I would not want to fight against family.
Freq-Sho
If my family wanted slaves then to hell with them besides the Revolutionary war is people fighting for the land they just killed everyone who lived there to get......
MakoBeach
@roze there were alot of tory(pro british) towns in the colonies but they had alot of people still fighting the british and vice versa
Kyle Chainey
They'd have to base The Patriot off of me.

Obviously as a Redcoat, rule Brittania!

If you know history you should know that the civil war was considered the deadliest war of all time. No thanks for the offer but I would not like to fight against the confederate/union soldiers -_-
MakoBeach

Rob Taylor
Seeing as I'd be fighting for the side that lost :P

The real question is whether I want to be stabbed or shot at?

Actually you'd be shot at in both wars

Well at least we were getting something done in the revolutionary war.

Gatling gun, nuff said.

If I fought in the Civil War, I'd be doing the same thing European Armies had done for a LOOONNGGG time(Let's take turns shooting at each other, my good chap!) While fighting in the Revolutionary War would be like this www.youtube.com/watch?v=f36gPAfgRMU Of course I would love to fight against slavery but yah

You would still fight in the war, silly.
overtherainbow
Personally, I would rather be having a war with another country. I mean, fighting for rights, thats noble, but within your own country just seems sad. Like a family who hates eachother. I don't like the thought of that. Plus... I dunno just seems awesome to be able to say, "Fuck yeah, I gave this country its damn independence. I am a fucking BAD ASS."
jakeb27
The Revolutionary war wasn't a war with another country. It was a rebellion.
Roydon
If you fight in the Revolutionary War, you can finally put an end to a political disgrace as the USA is now.

could I use modern weaponry as it would change the tide of war. also my gun would take less than 1min to reload as compared to the guns of that time taking like 10min to reload. could kill more red coats and snipe from about 2 miles away. while in cqb I would slaughter all of those red coats.

Less people died. Less chance of me dying. Also, though it did happen, there was less warring within families. Also, I CAN PLAY ASSASSIN'S CREED III IN REAL LIFE!

I'd rather fight in the Civil War because at least you won't freeze to death or pee on your bare feet to keep them warm in the snow.
