The guns are pretty cool on it, but Civil War muuuhh cancelled


I think those are supposed to be pirate pistols reminiscent of Jean Laffite. Nothing to do with Civil War.

correct. he was part of a war...the war of 1812

although they are trying to cancel that b/c lafitte apparently did smuggle/trade slaves, too

ah for some reason I thought they were supposed to be symbolic of the Civil War, but Lafitte makes more sense. Like I said, I don't go though LC unless I have to. As for bridges, roadway development and loops, Shreveport is still up on the scoreboard for second place after New Orleans.
