The slow worm lives on the Ionian Islands: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ionian_Islands

Now look there http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ionian_Islands#British_rule

Especially this part is very interesting:

Once Greek independence was established after 1830, however, the islanders began to resent foreign rule and to press for enosis - union with Greece. The British statesman William Ewart Gladstone toured the islands and recommended that they be given to Greece. The British government resisted, since like the Venetians they found the islands made useful naval bases.

Look on the number 31 on this map and where it shows: http://armaenigma.com/images/d/d9/Treasure.jpg

1821 is there year when greeks started their fight for independance.

And we also have a photo of the shoe of this old soldiers or guards: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evzones

The Evzones, or Evzoni, (Greek: ΕÏζωνες, ΕÏζωνοι) is the name of several historical elite light infantry and mountain units of the Greek Army.

The unit is famous around the world for its unique traditional uniform, which has evolved from the clothes worn by the klephts who fought the Ottoman occupation of Greece.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klepht

Klephts (Greek: κλέφτης, pl. κλέφτες - kleftis, kleftes, which originally meant just "brigand") were self-appointed armatoloi, anti-Ottoman insurgents, and warlike mountain-folk who lived in the countryside when Greece was a part of the Ottoman Empire.

Now it's like 1 + 1... I think we will get an addon or maybe even ARMA 3 where we have 3 sides: China/Iran as OPFOR, some guerilla (like greeks then) and GB (british navy?) as BLUEFOR. The guerillas are citizen of some islands and fight against the invaders China/Iran, they get help from GB.

Might it be that the map is a deployment map? For defence perhaps?

The uncovered map seems to be a sheet from a military manual identifying some kind of war maneuvers across parts of Europe.

Defending is also a war manuever, right?

Just throwing this out here.

It could be. The map itself makes references to CIA mind control experiments and doubts of the reliability of something, probably information. It would seem that this is a scenario based on information gained from unwilling sources.

[CameronMcDonald 146]

Nice work on the coordinates.

Still, the whole "Greece" angle is unexplained. We got:

- a text file with the name of a Greek plant.

- an MP3 audio file with the Greek motto.

- an SVG drawing with the number 1821, the year the Greek war of independence began.

- GIF image of a statue of Hephaestus, a Greek god.

- JPEG of a slow worm indigenous to Greece.

- A PNG of a shoe of the Greek royal guards.

Greece, anybody?

Wasn't the particular breed of slow worm found to be indigenous to the area surrounding the real-life Malden (Lefkas)?

As per the map on this page?

I posted this yesterday :

Anguis cephallonica

Distribution: S Greece (Peloponnes, Zakynthos and Kephallenia Islands) Terra typica: Lagune Kotavos bei Argostoli, Berg Agios Georgios und Sami auf Kephallonia; Berg Skopos auf der Insel Zante.

from : http://www.catalogueoflife.org/annua...ies/id/4459291

but as it has been stated afterwards "Nisos Lefkada" island just north of Zakynthos and Kephallenia Islands has been the model for OFP Malden island.

NAVY?, reforge convoys or what it was cal´d in the cold war era in the case of cold war gos hot.

USMC landing sites?

Well, Greece is associated with 31 on the map. It's not got a "Nav" unit associated with it, tho.

The complete list of numbers is as follows, with the numbers in p3R51An 8lacK Hat5 8oy5 highlighted (3518585).

Originally this post's point was I thought that the arrow was pointing at Levkas but, upon reviewing the map, I was mistaken.

97 NAV ( Atlantic Ocean => Iceland's West Coast )

91 NAV ( Atlantic Ocean => Scotland and Shetland Islands )

17 AB ( Switzerland )

4 NAV ( Black Sea => Northern Poland )

32 ( Turkey => Normandy, France or Belgium )

33 ( Turkey => Greece )

31 ( Turkey => Slovenia )

5 NAV ( Atlantic Ociean => Northern Spain and Mallorca Island )

12 NAV ( Mediterranean Sea => Southern France and Sardinia )

I just want to trow something:

1 hack; letters in red:

p3R51An 8lacK Hat5 8oy5 42(answer for everything) Spukayev's files still buried there.

So they have the answer for everything.

They gave us the map. (The world will change; , not only physics etc...they mean a real change in armaverse)

We know where now (Greece). Astute+Miller= GB as in independance war will help there.

We know who : Persian (Not only iran....here is where i want to go) + chinese (letters in chinese...)

The sentence says what is on us comes from ourselves, or what happens to us is our fault. That said Europe will make a big mistake and Turkey will be the starting point of the invasion. (not only Iran)

another thing . MK i don't think it has something to do with the project...

I think it's "OK" or aproved. OK is nomally used for zero killed. (0 k)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mk

or "Mark"= borders. So for me the map is a report sent by SDDUSTER of the invasion plans. Spain is the entrance of Mediterranean.So they need to close it (and has also american an american base) South of France, and control of northern atlantic and germany is to prevent an ally response.

what do you think? (many things have been said by others...all credit goes to the respective owners)

PS: Sorry for my english.

It only refers to MKSEARCH where MK = CIA. The mind control experiment was called MKULTRA and is not mentioned on the map so no mind control or other alien conspiracies. ;)

I also think it's a bit far fetched that Iran will join in the invasion other than some puppetmaster-role with intelligence and spec-ops. Does China deliver hardware to Iran? My guess is that we start the game/expansion with US/UK soldiers being run out of Turkey by Iranians and then we have to defend Greece to halt the invasion of Europe. Then again I've been way off in every theory I have in this thread...

MKULTRA was renamed MKSEARCH in the '60s.

Hmm.. It's phase five anyway. Could be that the CIA discovered an invasion plan (makes sense with the interrogation) and this is NATOs plan to counter the threat discovered by the CIA through their agents by whatever source?

Is anyone having a "black ops wtf" moment?

D'oh! Wrong again on my part then. But I hope we won't see any mind control operations or other sci-fi things.

[max power 21]

MKULTRA was real. It's not scifi. There were many deaths associated with those experiments.

Did you read the the work done on CIA Cryptonyms? All of those names fit the CIA Cryptonym format, and out of all of them, only one of them is an actual name (according to wikipedia), which was MKSEARCH. MKSEARCH is quite an infamous project, and often referenced in all kinds of kook conspiracy theories and popular culture. Given that all of the names are like Cryptonyms, and given that MKSEARCH is a very famous and contraversial project, I think it logically must be that MKSEARCH in the document refers to the CIA project.

Furthermore, M looks nothing like 0 or O, and the image of the document that references MKSEARCH is very clear.

I wonder why you don't just gloss over the armaenigma wiki. All this information is available for you to read there. If you bone up on it, and all of your compatriots who are attempting to participate in the discussion whom aren't fully up to speed also do that, we won't have to spend so much time re-referencing all the work we have already done. Compared to this thread, reading the wiki is practically nothing at all!

3518585

this number seems like an ID of the cheranus map

(keep in the editor map ...)

[GreyMatter 10]

started thinking that an russian assault might be possible from the middle east which could explain the map. so i googled russian invasion of europe and found this:

http://ww-iii.tripod.com/sequence.htm

to quote the summary

"Here are the sequence of the events leading to the Third World War and taking place during the war, based on the quatrains of Nostradamus and similar prophecies of other people."

i havent read the whole thing but using keyword serches i found some interesting points

1. "It appears that a certain leader, probably from Russia, Central Asia or China will come to conquer France. Is this the Man from the East in II.29 ? It seems that Russia and China will ally with the Islamic forces in World War III. In fact such a large scale attack on Europe is possible when the might of a country like China or Russia is behind the Eastern Alliance.

[iI.29] The man from the East will come out of his seat and will cross the Apennines to see France. He will cross through the sky, the seas and the snows and he will strike everyone with his rod.

Continuation of the description of the man from the East who will come to France with his great army. The 'Rod' described in this quatrain as well as in V.54 is some kind of new devastating weapon usind in WW-III."

2.http://ww-iii.tripod.com/sequence.htm#527 (titled Iran attacks Greece)

"[V.27] With fire and weapons, not far from the Black Sea, he will come from Persia to occupy Trebizond. Pharos and Mytilene tremble, the Sun is bright, the Adriatic sea covered with Arab blood.

A notable Iranian commander will come to fight in the Adriatic along with the Arabs. There will be losses in the eastern side too."

Greece is one side of the gateway to the Adriatic Sea.

3. There is a pic on the right hand side of the page (http://ww-iii.tripod.com/images/russattack.jpg). the red arrow w/ green outline i believe to be the Persian forces. look some-what familliar?? :http://aan-online.com/a.jpg

If you mean like coordinates, there are too many numbers. I think they don't always use a 5 for the last s, though. Could be worth a check.

[glowbal 13]

Or to few. (8 figure). But its an odd number. One to much for it, or one short.

[SwiftyBoy 0]

I keep coming back to these “Persiansâ€. We’re assuming they’re the bad guys, but if that was the case:

1. Why would they be giving us all this info?

2. Why wouldn’t they be calling themselves “Iranians�

So I’m wondering if they’re actually the good guys (albeit somewhat lacking in the social graces)? What if this isn’t a threat, but a warning? They’re telling us that something is coming, we’d better be ready, they’ve worked it out, we can too?

Doesn't necessarily make a lot of difference to the outcome or the puzzle, but it would make more sense if they were on our side, so to speak.

Then again, it is an ARG, so I might be over-analysing here...

[derdoe 10]

They want it to happen in plain sight and want to show us that we cant prevent it from happening.

[max power 21]

Well they seem to be trying to tell us something whether they are gloating or they are warning. Specifically, I think they chose Persian Black Hat Boys because they are referencing a real hacker group (the Iranian Black Hat Boys). Other indicators of why might be that the Takistanis speak Farsi, or that Iran is somehow involved in the end result. Also, There's a lot of arrows coming out of Turkey in that map, and although the ethnic Iranians or 'Persian people' aren't really ethnically related to Turks (I don't think), Turkey was part of the Persian Empire in ancient times.

[PuFu 4600]

on the other hand, Turkey is considered a strategic point, and there is plenty of Nato bases and troops stationed there. Its forces strenght is 1 mil +, so doubt it the place of origin for an armed invasion

As I said....it's not only the Iranians....but the Ottoman empire! :P Turkey too!
