Spies?

[rasnell]

Perhaps I've missed it but will spies be a part of the game? Pinkerton and James Andrew (the Andrews Raiders who stole the Confederate train) have their roots in the Civil War.

I could envision them working like Indians in BOA, easier to hide, slip behind the lines, reveal positions, perhaps minor sabotage?

Might be done as a chrome unit...that may be a bit useless. I was planning to have their effects rendered through events

part of the low strat rating of McClellan is considered in Pinkerton's reports I would say

I'm not sure I understand what a chrome unit is.

I would say something that looks nice and fun, but is close to useless in terms of global gameplay
