During the US Civil War, battle tactics on both sides of the conflict varied based on any number of factors. With that said, and all elements being equal, a typical style of tactics would be the following:
* Each side would be positioned in opposing lines of battle;
* Soldiers would be massed shoulder to shoulder in each regiments in the battle;
* For soldiers armed with single shot rifle muskets this was the best way to concentrate infantry firepower;
* Once within the rifle range of the enemy, infantry on both sides would begin firing;
* The attacking soldiers firing and loading as they advanced across open ground; and
* The attackers' pace of advancement slowed by the need to prime, load, ram, and fire the muzzle loaded rifle musket.
As previously mentioned this was not the tactics always used, however, it was used often enough to make note of it.
