    As much in the economic sense of the word as the psych one. For those across the pond, the Penn Central railroad bankruptcy (an ill-advised unholy union of two bitter archrivals who would each gladly torch their own company to screw over the other) was an epic disaster, crippling roughly a quarter of the US rail network.

    And the US is *always* going to be "light on ships" in this period, unless and until Ares starts covering the Great Lakes Campaigns and/or the privateer campaigns. Aside from a one-off built during the AmRev which was then fobbed off onto France[1], the US wouldn't have any ships-of-the-line until well after the War of 1812[2].

    [2: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Independence_(1814) and https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Washington_(1814) did not enter service until after the War ended.]

    I think before this happens, we see Mr. Manleys gunboat campaign with SoG models.
