History Channel: Civil War - Secret Missions
Civil War: Secret Missions is the sequel to Civil War: A Nation Divided, it introduces a few new weapons, but shorter missions. In this game you can only carry two weapons at a time as opposed to all of them.
The following firearms were featured in the video game Civil War: Secret Missions.
Colt Army Model 1860
The 1860 returns from the first game and is virtually unchanged, one difference with the 1860 Army and 1858 Remington is that, the player no longer fires and cocks the hammer in free aim in this game, he just free fires when not using the iron sights.
Remington Model 1858
Same as it was in the first game no changes
Allen & Thurber Pepperbox
The Pepperbox Revolver was the precursor to the common day Revolving Pistol, instead of one cylinder with multiple chambers it had a cluster of barrels with multiple caps, and loads. It was very dangerous, as it had a defect similar to the Colt 1855 Revolving rifle, whereas one barrel could cause a chain explosion. It is a new weapon in the game, and is not very common, it is shown as being reloaded by inaccurately pulling the barrel of and swapping it with a new preloaded barrel one, also like all the guns in the series percussion caps are never replaced.
Sharps Rifle
Sharps 1855
Both the Sniper Model and the Bayonet Model Field Gun return from the first game
Colt Model 1855
The Colt 1855 Revolving Rifle returns and is basically the same as it was in the first game, though it is more accurate this time.
Spencer 1860 Carbine
The 1860 Spencer returns from the first game and for some reason still reloads by merely pulling the magazine tube out and then putting it back in, without dropping any bullets in the gun.
Henry 1860
The Henry rifle was perhaps the most revolutionary gun of the time and was the direct precursor to the Winchester rifle. In the game, it shown being used in very early to very late battles as almost a standard issue weapon when in reality, the Henry was rarley issued to regular troops and was used more by soldiers who purchased it with their own funds.
Whitworth Sniper Rifle
A new rifle in the game and also the only muzzleloading musket in the game. The Whitworth Sniper Rifle was one of the more popular and more accurate sniper rifles during the civil war, and like all other guns in the game, it is reloaded without placing a percussion cap.
9 lb. Howitzer
The 9 lb. howitzer is the main artillery piece of the game and can be manned by the player in various levels. Interesting note is how the gun can be fired, reloaded, and fired very quickly by only one person when in reality, a whole crew would be needed.
Gatling Gun
The Gatling gun was the world's first practical machine gun and saw great usage during the civil war. Along side the howitzer, it is the only other weapon that can be manned and has a rather slow firing rate and infinite ammunition.
