maodiver 0 Posted December 5, 2001 So who is going to call their travel agent and set up an OpFlash tour of the three (four?) islands? We all could get an incredible paintball re-enaction of some of the battles. Any ideas? Seriously, I wish I could afford to get there to get incredible realism into the game when I play. That would be excellent. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Havelock 0 Posted December 5, 2001 I think I'd skip the Koguyev trip. Certainly at this time of the year. I'm up for a dash to Krk though ... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The name of the real desert island next to Levkas is Meganissi. That sums it up. I've retain this for posterity on The FAQ. Search for "real islands".
