The following article - based on the ideas of Ramscoop Raider, for whose patient assistance I offer my thanks and my heartiest gratitude - presents a possible breakdown of the Army of the Confederate States of America/Timeline-191 in the earliest days of the First Great War, as supported by a population of 33,370,191 millions* subject to a Conscription Act and a system comparable to that of France.
*Of which approximately 1/3 Confederate coloured.
These population numbers suggest a possible total of 290 Infantry regiments, 110 Cavalry regiments and 50 Artillery regiments (Not counting majority non-white support elements, which may or may not comprise separate troop formations).
Those units would be further divided into:-
First Line Troops (Regular Army): ready at command
110 Infantry regiments, 75 Cavalry regiments, 50 Artillery regiments
This represents the 1st-110th C.S. Infantry regiments, the 1st-75th C.S. Cavalry regiments and the 1st-50th C.S. Artillery regiments.
Second Line Troops (Regular Army reserves + State Volunteer Regiments): ready within 30-45 days of mobilisation
100 Infantry Regiments, 25 Cavalry Regiments
This represents the 111th-161st C.S. Infantry Regiments and the 76th-88th C.S. Cavalry Regiments, as well as:-
- 1st & 2nd South Carolina Volunteer Infantry, 1st South Carolina Volunteer Cavalry
