1. Hindman would be a good candidate for the "Deceiver" trait. When he was posted in Arkansas he did an impressive job of confusing the Federal troops in the area (campaigns of misinformation, guerilla tactics, etc.).

My suggestion:
190 CSA Thomas C. Hindman ldr_CSA_Hindman $Deceiver NULL NULL NULL 7 10 1 17 General 1 NULL 5 1 1

Strategic rating of 5 seems a bit high. He was replaced by Holmes after politicians complained about his vigorous enforcement of conscription and imposing martial law. He also published an order called "Confederate Partisan Act in Missouri" telling men how to form irregular units and the types of operations to carry out against union troops. How about giving him patriot and occupier? I know occupier doesn't affect his own country but I'm sure he would've imposed martial law if he had occupied northern territory since he had no problems doing it in his own.

sounds logical.

agree that 5 is high.. its as if every csa general has a strat rating of atleast 4-5.... def should be lowered

190 CSA Thomas C. Hindman ldr_CSA_Hindman $Patriot $Occupier NULL NULL 7 10 1 17 General 1 NULL 3 1 1

We can't afford to give more than 2 traits to minor leaders
