In the game's words
How to use it
The Cherokee Rifleman is an infantry unit with a good attack and good range. The Cherokee Rifleman does his damage at range and it is good to maintain this range whenever possible. Like all Native American warriors, the Cherokee Rifleman does not take any population space, making them an excellent unit to train if you have reached the upper limits of your population. Fast and ranged, they are an excellent unit to train, even if you haven't reached your population limit.
History
Stand Watie organized a group of Cherokee Riflemen that served with the Confederate States Army. Watie had been one of the three leaders who had signed the Treaty of New Echota without the knowledge or consent of other Cherokee leaders. The treaty resulted in the removal of the entire Cherokee nation to lands west of the Mississippi River in a massive militarily enforced migration that is known as "The Trail of Tears." Watie's regiment of riflemen were mounted and sometimes called the Cherokee Rangers. By the end of the Civil War, Stand Watie had earned the rank of Brigadier General in the Confederate Army and was the last of its generals to surrender to the Union Army.
