The North American parliament orders the mobilization of the Army of the West, and redirects the Army of the Potomac, recently mobilized, to the West to aid the Army of the West. Their orders are to secure all areas currently settled. Once settled areas are secure, they are to lay waste to any Indian tribes that resist the Americans.
