US on factions list

[Mailman653]

The RtI ends in 1810? That makes it longer than the full campaign, weird. Although I suppose thats to compensate the fact that had it been included in the full campaign, the US would only be playable late in the game and only have 20 or so years before the game officially ends.

They could of at least extended it to 1812 to include the first year of the War of 1812
Although that brings up an interesting question, if you can start at the 4th chapter of the RtI from 1783-1810, then every nation would have their historical situation presented at the time which could in theory leave the door open for Republican France to emgerge during the game and Napoleon. It would be amusing to be allied with England or France during this time and send an army to help out. Only in a video game would you ever see an American army fighting with Napoleon on European soil or fighting alongside the English.

In regards to the "an entirely unreasonable line" seems like a strech meant to appeal to the popular view many people have about the war. I think it was perfectly logical that a goverment in debt would raise taxes in order to pay that debt.
