A brief video explains the events leading up to each scenario before each level, but other than conveying the tremendous loss of life and showing a few interesting black-and-white photos, the videos are uninteresting and consist of nothing more than dry narration about troop movements as you view colored blocks moving around maps. However, you're not likely to care which side you fight for-there's very little story, and no matter what you do, the North wins and the South loses. You'll fight through five levels for the North and six for the South before fighting one last battle for the Union side in Petersburg. There are 12 levels in all, and you'll play as a soldier for both the Union and the Confederacy. History Channel: Civil War follows the events of the American Civil War that pitted the North against the South from 1861 to 1865. Time out! I need to reload! Okay, time in! Despite a somewhat unique setting for a first-person shooter, History Channel: Civil War is a run-of-the-mill affair that isn't likely to please Civil War buffs or, for that matter, anyone else. With no shortage of games based on the Second World War already on the market, including its own Call of Duty series, Activision has gone even further into the past-all the way back to 1861-for inspiration. There's no question that World War II is the war of choice for developers looking to make a first-person shooter based on real-life events.
