[Parties] KHMC according to Callumh123

Day 3,083, 02:33 • Published in Australia Australia • by Gueneo
Greetings Australia!

This article is the first in a series of interviews about the story of the parties showed in the national ranking. I've contacted all the PP asking their availability to answer some questions. In some cases I've contacted other players, suggested by the PPs, which most know the history of the party.
I would say thank to all the players who have given me their time to answer this questions!

Today we're with Callumh123 that talk about KnightHawks Military Council!



Gueneo:
Hi Callumh123! Are you available to reply to some questions?
Callumh123:
Of course, but it will be a few hours before I get the time to write them. 😛


Gueneo:
Perfect, thank you!
Let's start...
You are the current PP of the "KnightHawks Military Council". Can you tell us briefly when the party was founded, by whom and why?
Callumh123:
That I am. I can not give you total specifics because I was not in the party at its inception (in fact at the time, I detested the amalgamation of politics and military, but it became the more moderate and enduring force and I eventually decided to join it in 2014.

In some ways, it is the Australian National Party and KH combined (of which I was both in before switching) and decided to join (Partly because Henry badgered me for 2 years and the game was shifting to what we have now). Back to the matter of hand, I would have to say the party was created between 2012-2013 from memory and was founded by Henry and Scotty (former legendary tank, rl virgin).

Why? Probably no reason in particular. The KnightHawks were by far, at the time, the largest MU other than the ADF and maybe another so it seemed natural to them that a political wing was the corollary of the progression of the organisation.


Gueneo:
What are the thoughts that currently can describe the party's commitment to the nation? This thinking has changed over the time or remained unchanged from the foundation?
Callumh123:
The party is stubborn in all the right ways. It has not much changed since its inception, it regularly is seen as the alternative and sometimes outsider party in the hierarchy but we enjoy strong relationships with most of the parties now, for the good of the country. The KHMC has been about displaying strength and wit (unfortunately something our founders were devoid of) and always on the side of Australia and the fair player. Our commitment to the country has not and I am quite sure will never change.


Gueneo:
What is the best memory you have of the party or of the players who have shared membership in it?
Callumh123:
The party has always had strong characters and I would have to say that most players have been part of our ranks at some time or another, even if briefly. I will speak broadly and include the entire KH (which we are) and say my most savoured memory (in game and real life) was during V2 when the KH was only a small militia of a few strong players and me (Our dear friend Sam Cougar, Henry, Undala, SC and then later on with Lord TJ and Styvesant as well as others.)and our tank members would just bulldoze the Indonesians in glorious battles on skype. In the KHMC, watching the rise of TJ, Sty and Ilene have been personally fantastic to watch develop.


Gueneo:
About current political issues, what's your idea about Alliances, Resource wars and senator CS debates?
Callumh123:
Get out immediately of Nebula and allow the FA to explore other options. We are shackled to this dead alliance and it is time to move on. The alliance started during my term as CP and was a great idea at first. TWO broke up because they were bored of always winning and we weren't allowed on the big boy table. So we thought, why not get some like minded, similar strength countries together and act in our interests? we had so much initial success and Infowar took over Australian interest. Perhaps in hindsight I should have put a foot on it before he got out of hand. But it needs to go now.

Admittedly I have never been able to keep up with the economic module in this game since basically the end of my last term and have no idea what to do in this regard. However members of the party are keen participants in the debate and look forward to see what they think is the best way forward in the resources wars.

I would like to see this terms Congress vote on ASIO laws, however my fellow PP's do not seem so keen on this idea. We have strong legislation in place, it is a matter of getting it into use.


Gueneo:
I've read by more players willing to change the alliance. This thought arises solely from the fact that it's too inactive or are there other reasons? In other words: it's just inactivity that leads to change it or it's the type of alliance (between countries with similar strenght) that can't work anymore, at the moment?
Callumh123:
I'm in the same place as you on Nebula to be honest, it hasn't done much and though we remain close with our allies within it, there isn't really a central command or much cohesion or more importantly, a narrative. I would say if one rapscallion decided to take the task upon themselves to revitalize the alliance I would give it a chance just for that sake (maybe). But that doesn't appear to be the case.


Gueneo:
The current CP has recently published the possibility of planned airstrike for the resources wars. Forget about the resources wars, if there was the possibility of launching an airstrike and conquer a country in the game, where you throw it and why?
Callumh123:
I have probably not kept up on this issue on purpose because I don't have the time to really analyze it, but generally I would favor a training war for these type of events because there is always the risk it could backfire dangerously. If I could airstrike a nation it would be some nation other than Australia that Guagature holds dear, like Canada.


Gueneo:
Are you a native Australian? Can you tell us where you live (or in which region), or in which country, if you aren't Australian?
Callumh123:
I am an Australian (one of the few) from Victoria, go to the same uni as Discrate.


Gueneo:
Your IRL favourite food, movie and historical figure?
Callumh123:
A quality burger, curry or pasta dish does it for me. I don't have a favourite movie unfortunately.


Gueneo:
The best and the worst player you find in the community?
(and why, if you want to explain, and hey, this isn't serious question, so choose whether to take seriously or not)
Callumh123:
Best player is probs Henry maybe, I will regret saying this in 5 minutes. The worst is a tie between Guagature and Ronnell.


Gueneo:
You're free (but not required) to ask me about anything (except how I found out you were the wolf).
Callumh123:
Now all I want to know is how you knew I was the werewolf 😛


Gueneo:
Ah! Lost your chance to ask anything! 😛
Thank you again Callumh123!
Callumh123:
Cheers for putting all this work into it!
