Gen Grenadier Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 Just a question to the designers as to why Robertson's brigade is named after him and not their more famous and accurate moniker "the Texas Brigade." Seems only fitting to me that one of the most hard fighting and reliable units in Lee's army get its own custom name Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R.E.B.Blunt Posted August 16, 2014 Share Posted August 16, 2014 Well to be fair at the battle of Gettysburg. It was 3 Texas Regiments and 1 Arkansas Regiment. Other names they were called were "Hoods Brigade" Or "Hoods Texas Brigade" But your right along with Stonewall Brigade these were the best of the best. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Mercanto Posted August 19, 2014 Share Posted August 19, 2014 Correct me if I'm wrong but the "Stonewall Brigade" was the only brigade in the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia which had its sobriquet recognized officially by the Rebel government. For that reason I kind of like the fact that only the Stonewall Brigade has its sobriquet in the game. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
