Why was it such a huge mistake for Civil War generals to adhere to Napoleon Bonaparte's famous military strategies?

if you could please give me at least 3 sentences that would be great. I don't even know because it's been a long time and I don't even want to go through all of my lessons just to find out what it is because that's a lot. I'm even willing to give 20 points for some one to please help me with this.

The reason it was such a huge mistake was because the weapons were much more modern during the Civil War. Napoleon had weapons that fit to his strategies which was why his strategies were so famous for his day in age. The weapons they used in the Civil War were more powerful, and much more accurate.
