Sherlock Holmes (2009)

Question: How was Blackwood's plan to reclaim America back into British control supposed to have played out, as laid out to Standish? If they got control of the armed forces, would they have attempted an invasion of the United States?

Answer: After killing off England's entire Parliament, gaining control of the government and military, Blackwood would then wage war against the United States, believing the U.S. military was in a weakened and chaotic state following the Civil War. The details were sketchy, but if he actually did intend to reconquer the US, an army would have to invade it.
