Looks like it. This is gonna be rough for public opinion in the UK. I think I might need to make one of my orders a rhetoric campaign...

I don't know all this talk about world war. I'm just trying to save my country, man. I'll let all you royals play your war games.

@Aegon; good question. No, neither side has openly declared war on each other yet. But it will happen.
That's a no to war actions, but if I want to still do military-centric actions can I use my regular actions?

@Pasta; honestly, mate, I have no idea where any of your troops are. I'm pretty sure you are the first person in the history of WiR to ever ask that question. Just assume a large number of them are in the colonies, particularly India, but most of them are in the Home Islands. Same with the Royal Navy.
@Aegon; yes, you may.

@Outcast; Alright then. Considering that...I'll need to send you a new list of Orders then probably soon. I'll have them in before Wednesday, but just ignore the current orders if you will.
Hmm I have most of the orders ready but wish to allow the world war to break out before enacting anything aside from the emancipation of the serfs

I could be of some help. I will track down British deployments.

@So Boerd. THanks. I would appreciate that. If there is a site or something that would help with that just let me know. Like, if all else fails I could just assume like Outcast said. But I would prefer historical accuracy.
Well, holy shit. I scored high. I hope that goes down as a military feat. Time to reconquer the rest of the country from those pesky Liberals.
And responded to your PM, Rare. Also, Byrd Man, I sent you one a while ago.
I'm bloody happy that the Battle of Bogotá actually got mentioned, too, given that we are pretty minor compared to other conflicts.

Sent in my orders!! Hope they all go swimmingly... Kinda sad I have to use one to move my capital city (I made an interesting choice, I think, so look out)...
EDIT: @Rare, is that ALL Americans? Including Confederates?

Yes, that is what I mean by all Americans including the confederates, that don't want to fire the war.
The brits have 4,000 troops in Canada on the onset of the civil war. From the "Military History of Canada" wiki page.

@So Boerd. Graci! That's something at least. Haha. Need to look at our Navy...
Edit: This is too much fun and is keeping me up too late. I'll respond when I can tomorrow after work. God speed.

3000 Brits in South Africa on the onset of the Boer war. I would imagine the majority of the British troops are in India considering the enormous revolt that just happened four years earlier. Working on finding numbers for that. I will assume the Indian Army, composed of natives, counts more as reserves than regulars, otherwise Britain would only have a few thousand troops at home and the Indian army wasn't close to British regular standards.

Can I change my orders this one time, please Outcast?
Found it! On the British Raj Wikipedia page, 84,000 British troops in India this very year.
3000 troops in Australia, only one regiment, from "List of British Regiments in Australia" Wikipedia page. Working on navy now. The soldiers add up to 94,000, so let's call it a nice, even hundred thousand colonial troops? There are too many colonies that are obscure to do a better count.
