Huge Questions About Civil War 2.0
Dear Readers, look at this recent photo of a Texas National Guard unit.

It's reminiscent of the dream I had a number of years back, of a unit of light infantry with automatic rifles slung over their shoulders. They weren't out in the open like this, but up against a tree line with kudzu, on the edge of a small railroad yard somewhere in the South. I didn't know who they were fighting at that time, but now it looks like they will probably be fighting the Federals. There already is a state/spirit of rebellion in 26 of the 50 States over the border and related immigration issues, even if kinetic, military action has not yet broken out.
Of course, the prospect of National Guard and State militias in pitched battle against Federal forces raises a number of issues. Unlike Civil War 1.0 where the regime in Washington-DC squared off against troops from a dozen or so states, this time it could be going up against armed forces and militias from 15 or 20 or 25 states.
Will the commander of Fort Bliss in Texas deliver his troops and weapons to the Rebellion, or await orders from Lloyd Austin's corpse in the morgue at Dover AFB? How about Camp Blanding in Florida? Fort Riley in Kansas? Dyess AFB in Abilene-TX? Minot AFB in North Dakota? Barksdale AFB in Shreveport-LA? Malmstrom AFB in Montana? Fort Sill in Oklahoma? Mayport Naval Base in Florida? Little Rock AFB in Arkansas? etc.
That will be one of the huge issues when kinetic conflict begins, as now appears probable.
Another huge issue is that military technology is far more powerful in the 2020s than in the 1860s.
For instance, some of the many military bases in what may soon be Rebel Territory have nuclear weapons. So what happens to the nukes in a shooting Civil War 2.0 scenario?
