Blunt is a pretty cool commander and I'd have loved to see what would have happened if I'd have gotten him in contact with the division that Stand Watie brought to the field. Yes, they threw an entire bright yellow division at Springfield, Missouri, complete with an yellow supply train and everything.

But to my question. Blunt arrives with two regiments of Lipan indi... eh, native Americans. The tool-tip on the Lipans says that they have a Command Cost of 0 -in words zero-, but stacked with master Blunt the the tool-tip of the stack says Command Usage 4(!!).

I read some insinuations in the forum about leading foreign troops and some penalties, and the Lipans certainly have a different unit color, so I suppose that they are considered from a different nation. Historically they considered themselves to be from a different nation, and we certainly treated them as if they were foreigners. So where does it say anything about leading foreign troops?

BTW On one of the units it says Lippan Indians with 2 'p's instead of the correct way which is with one 'p'.

There should be a few generals who have some ability that allows them to lead Indians and U/CSA troops without penalty. The other games (BoA2, NCP, RoP) have similar traits. You noticed that all the Indian units had the trait "this unit is Indian"? Well, that screws up everyone who isn't Stand Watie.

LoL a dyslexic work-around

I actually thought that Blunt was the man with that feature. After all, the Lipan arrive with him. I never noticed it before that they don't get along too well.
