The Sons We've Lost - An American Civil War

The along awaited continuation of "The Sons We've Lost" has hit 1.0

The Sons We've Lost is a compilation of all my fictional factions I've created for an imagined American Civil War. This is going to be the final upload related to my Sons We've Lost series and this will be where all my future updates will be posted. No more downloading eight different faction mods in order to get the full experience.

BLUFOR
United Sates Marine Corps (Base CUP faction):
When the house became divided, the United States government knew that the country could not stand alone. It rapidly deployed troops to all parts of the country to battle back the rampantly growing militias that came to challenge it. While funding for the military is sparse, and morale is down, each soldier who has dedicated their life to this military fights with the most radical patriotism flowing through their blood. They will not let this country crumble.
United States National Guard:
When the United States fractured, it was a morale blow that was felt nationwide. It was time for the remnants of the United States to call upon its well-regulated but battered militia. It was necessary for the security of a free State. The Army and Air National Guard was called to deploy in the now anarchy-ridden territories of the country. Many members were reluctant as it appears there wasn't much that could be saved. But the president made a promise in his Militia Act, if the country is to be restored, every active-duty guardsman who served will receive full honors and a pay generous enough to retire on. The United States would be indebted to the National Guard.
This faction draws inspiration from the branches of the U.S. National Guard.
American Auxiliaries:
After the dis-unification of the United States of America, law and order had been thrown out the window. The US government could no longer fund the police force and the country has been left in absolute anarchy. Members of the Police Union and some good Samaritans refuse to let this chaos remain. Ex-police officers, disgruntled citizens, and the Sheriff have come together to guarantee that every citizen has a right to be protected and live in peace.
This faction draws inspiration from Hell or High Water.

OPFOR
New Confederacy:
♫I wish I was born in the land of traitors♫ The second most powerful faction, and the main enemy of the United States Government. The New Confederacy is deeply rooted in the old, feeling that the federalist government had cheated the constitution and stole all the power from the states, The New Confederacy fights to create a new country that adhere's to the Anti-Federalist Founding Fathers. A truly individualistic, frontierist, and radically Christian group, they will not falter until the last man has fallen.
This faction draws inspiration from the American South.
Aryan Brotherhood:
For some, the war between brothers was an event that was prophesied and required to establish a new order. This radical right-wing group had been training long before the Civil War was even fathomed. Rooted in a violent history, this group was eager to become one of the major factions in this wasteland of a country. Oppressive, authoritarian, and ruthless, the Aryan Brotherhood will stop at nothing to install their new regime.
This faction draws inspiration from various extremist militias.
Church of Our Saviour:
When America fell, some saw it as a result of the Godless society that the government had adopted. Separation of Church and State has led to a degenerative society and a moraless people. The Church of Our Saviour proselytized the downfall of the country before it even began. Led by a zealotic preacher, this group proclaims, "down with the eagle, and up with the cross!" Despite its Christian banner, the extreme motive is nothing to take lightly.
This faction draws inspiration from Far Cry 5.

INDEP
Bull Moose Alliance:
For many the rapid secession of states from the Union was seen as an opportunity for change. For a long time several groups around the US has advocated for a progressive change, a more humane government to take power. Many of these groups had their differences, but they have banded together under one banner as the original thirteen colonies once did, forming an alliance to challenge the growing far-right factions and the now outdated remnants of the United States. Progressive, Anarchist, Communist, Socialist? It does not matter, for now they must band together to take on the greater threats to this once great nation.
This faction draws inspiration from various Left-Wing militias.
Anarchist Front:
The splitting of the United States led to an already present American group to grow exponentially. These left-wing freedom fighters desire to keep the country in a state of Anarchy by any means possible. Through peaceful protesting, rioting, and at times even full blown terrorism, any tyrannical group that rises you can expect the Anarchist Front to be there to shut them down.
This faction draws inspiration from ANTIFA.
Crimson Rouge:
The dismantling of the American Empire is just what some groups had strive for. Some felt the American populace had become spoiled and too reliant on material things. The Crimson Rouge, a fringe group that has forever espoused a radical agrarian ideology has grabbed whatever power it could when the US fractured. Evicting communities left and right, they reject Western civilization and its urban environments, and desire the absolute abolition of private property, currency, and returning to the communal root of mankind.
This faction draws inspiration from the Khmer Rouge.
