20th New York

The 20th New York is one of 48 Infantry Union Units the player can choose from.

History
Sometimes referred to as the "United Turner Rifles," the 20th NY was first organized in May of 1861 under Colonel Max Weber. They marched out of New York City with a menagerie of troops hailing from a variety of locales around the city, including several companies originating from Newark, New Jersey as much as from Brooklyn, Albany, Poughkeepsie, and New York City itself. Their short-lived service as infantry included their first engagement at Fort Hatteras, some of the battles in the Peninsula Campaign, and finally in the battles of South Mountain and Antietam, where they suffered 145 casualties during the failed push on the West Woods. The regiment served the remainder of their two years, where they were then sent to reinforce various cavalry and artillery units.
