The Great War in America - New Scenario

[HerrDak]

The map is a litte more advanced now, Mexican terrain is finish, Im looking to make the map the most accurate as possible.

Here is the type of units the Mexican Federal Army will have: (This is the original regimental organization of the Mexican Army at the time).

Infantry Regiment:


This are hard men with decent training, some units (especially the North Divisions) are veterans because where involved in fights that stop the revolution. Their main armament is the Mauser 98.

Cavalry Regiment:


As the regular infantry regiments, the training of this units is fairly decent.

Explorer Cavalry Regiment:


Regiment with light armament with the main function to detect the enemy advance and movement.

Campaign Artillery Regiment:


The Main Artillery of the Mexican Army is the Saint Chamond-Mondragón, a 75mm Cannon designed by the Mexican General Manuel Mondragón and produced by the French Industry St. Chamond.

Mountain Artillery Regiment:


This are more numerous in the army, the main equip of this regiments are the schneider-canet howitzers 75 and 80mm

Machine Gun Regiment:


This Support Regiments have Machienguns at his disposition and are great for defense. They main armament are the french Hotchkiss Mle 1914.

Brigadas de los Supremos Poderes (Supreme Powers Brigades):


This two brigades (Infantry and Cavalry) are the elite of the Mexican Army. They have high training and are armed with the "Fusil Porfirio Díaz Sistema Mondragón Modelo 1908". The First Semi-automatic Rifle in the world.

State Militia Regiments:


In case of Foreign Invasion, the different states of the republic can rise Militia Regiments to defend the Fatherland. This Regiments are of medium/poor quality (depend of the state) and are commanded by the "Segunda Reserva Officers", civilians that have military training and are called to arms only in case of foreign invasion.

Leva Regiments: *This are not part of the Official Army Organization, but are included to reflect the state of the troops in a prolonged conflict.


When the war is going really bad, the government begins with the compulsory enlistment of citizens for the national defense. This regiments are composed by boys, old people, peasants, etc. This Regiments have low fighting spirit and mediocre training.

Rural Police Corps:


This are small corps distributed among the Republic to keep order, they know pretty well the terrain and can be excelent explorer troops. Can also be used to make ambushes to isolated units.
