Baptism of Fire

Day 2,312, 03:05 Published in United Kingdom United Kingdom by K to the izza Mo Fo

Well it has certainly been an interesting few weeks to begin my elife with although hopefully in times to come the excitement isn't coupled with mass invasion and a potential PTO.

So since my last article I have been trying to build up my business, got my food and weapon factory to Q2 wooo only 5 to go -.- and my strength too I'm nearly into 4 figures with that! To start with the slow long play nature of the game was starting to annoy me, I mean I go to a battlefield and if I can hit over 100k without rockets bombs or bazookas I feel like doing a victory dance and then you look up and there's people already sitting on a few mil damage and its disheartening. But now I have came to terms with and I cant wait to that's me!

But anyway I digress so I better get back on topic. The mass invasion of the eUK by multiple enemies, all I could think of was damn we are getting smashed here as I watched territory after territory change colour and you cant help but feel helpless as a little division 1 less than 1000str minnow but still I fought every battle I could and done as much damage as I could even if it was inconsequential but I can say I was there, I helped hold the line and I helped take back what was ours. Sadly from what I have been reading others cannot say the same and they where not minnows and there damage would not have been inconsequential. But at the end of the day we have nearly retook all our lost lands and I look forward to some revenge attacks.

So there I am sitting proud as punch as my fellow countrymen rallied and you start to get some national pride and then what happens? Some toe rags sneak in and PTO one party in the top 5 and potentially another one and now we face a completely different threat but just as dangerous and I hope my fellow eBrits rally around just as before.

I would also like to thank TUP my initial party but I feel I have found a more natural feeling home at PCP where I find my beliefs to be more matched and so a shout out to my new comrades is also in order!

I would like to close this article posing two questions to any readers I may have;

1. Should we airstrike Moldova for revenge and help wipe them off the map?

2. Should we be worried about our Speaker, iAdrastos?

I ask question 2 as others have spoken out about our speaker and I found a comment in his last article a bit worrying.

Defence and Foreign Affairs Committee – Co-Chairmen: Rob the Bruce and Lonqu

The role of having a Chair is particularly important in the Defence and FA Committee, as it is these areas where decisions can need to be taken very quickly and there is no time to consult the whole of Congress. Having a dedicated representative for Defence and FA means the Govt can ‘talk to Congress’ when under time pressure by simply consulting one person, whether that be the chair of the committee or the Speaker.

Does this sound like he is trying to give the speaker powers over our defence and foreign affairs without gaining congressional support? And what if the chair of this committee and the speaker are of the same party, will that one party now controls foreign affairs?
