Loyalist (Federal Government) Infantry

the loyalist faction of the United States Armed Forces consists of notably the 101st Airborne, 3rd Infantry and 2nd Marine Divisions that had aligned with the Federal Government during the polarization and eventually collapse of the Country, the 101st played a crucial role in breaking through the Wabash river after a significant amount of defeats during the early stages of the conflict, retaking the state capital of Illinois, Springfield after months of grueling advances into the Illinois countryside, though faced with heavy losses, they pushed on towards the rebel’s capital of Bismarck, eventually being the one of the units that captured the city

the 2nd Marine Division, though rarely seeing action in the later part of the war, played a crucial role as shock troops to test rebel defenses, though they faced significant casualties, their failed advances helped the Federal Government form a strategy that eventually led them to win the war

The infantry were an important asset in the war, whether it was full on blitzkriegs or testing enemy defenses, they were crucial on both sides of the conflict
