Agia Marina was a settlement located on the island of Stratis in the Republic of Altis and Stratis.

Overview[]

A harbour town[1] situated on the north-western side of Stratis and east of the Stratis Air Base, Agia Marina consists of numerous houses and a large, L-shaped marina (of which the town is named after). It supports fishing vessels and recreational boats while also doubling as a breakwater. In the 1960s, an earthquake struck the island and severely damaged parts of the marina. In the aftermath, some of the town's residential homes were partially dismantled and their materials used to repair the damage.[2]

To its north lies a radio tower and small cemetery. The vantage point provides a magnificent view of the entire Marina Bay and Stratis' north-western coastline. A dried up creek runs through the centre of the town but is only inundated during the winter and with high tides.

The town has remained abandoned since the end of the civil war, with only its former dwellings left standing in a state of disrepair.[3] However, the military range located to the south-east is still used to a limited extent by government forces - housing infantry and providing maintenance for MRAPs and IFVs.[4]

History[]

Arma3-campaign-theeastwind-survive-00

The military camp is briefly overrun by NATO survivors (2035)

One day after the unprovoked attack against the peacekeepers of NATO's U.S.-led Task Force Aegis[5] on July 7th, 2035[6], the Altian troops stationed at the military camp would find themselves under assault by remnants of the task force.[4][7]

As they were understrength, the AAF garrison proved to be no match for the sudden attack and Agia Marina was successfully captured by the Americans.[8] However, their victory was short lived as Iranian-led CSAT reinforcements, arriving by air, repelled the counteroffensive and annihilated the remaining peacekeepers in a single stroke.[6][9][10]

Agia Marina would subsequently remain under the control of the Altian government until one month later on August 8th[6], when a brigade of American forces from the 111th Infantry Division (111th ID) stormed the island and wrested control of its settlements from the Altian garrison.[11][12]

Trivia[]

  • Agia Marina's real-world counterpart is the town of Ag. Efstratios on the island of Agios Efstratios, Greece.
    • However, the in-game version's military range is a completely fictitious addon, as is the extension of the road that leads south-west to the in-game Stratis Air Base (the airbase does not exist in reality).

Now, nothing I've got to say will change that fact, but I do have new information. Late last night Delta managed to establish temporary long-range contact with NATO MEDCOM. Reinforcements are inbound. We need to lay the groundwork for a full invasion. They need an established foothold, not a broken down base hidden in the woods. I say we attack now. We catch the AAF off-guard. We hold the ground we seize. I'll lead Delta behind enemy lines and take up an advanced position to the North of Agia Marina. Alpha and Bravo will lead the main assault on the military range, while Charlie hit Camp Rogain and contain any counter-attack that might flank our main assault. Once the range is secure, we'll converge on the town and entrench our position. I'll go through the exact details of the plan with each individual squad leader. They'll bring the rest of their men up to speed. Good luck, gentlemen."

Please advise, over. MILLER: Copy that, Alpha. Wait one. MITCHELL: All callsigns, this is Charlie! We're facing a huge counter-attack here! We're being engaged by multiple unknown contacts! Numerous aircraft and infantry firing on our positions! Charlie is under heavy assault, I say again - CONWAY: Jesus Christ! Delta, this is Alpha! What the hell is going on?! Over! Captain Miller! Do you read? Respond! MILLER: Alpha, Bravo, listen carefully. There's not much time. These guys mean business. Disengage. Fall back from the town. Head north. We'll RV at a small bay. Grid 032 068."

I wonder what went wrong on Altis. 111TH ID SOLDIER 2: The lieutenant said they ran into CSAT. 111TH ID SOLDIER 1: Yeah? I thought we were fighting Greenbacks? 111TH ID SOLDIER 2: Who knows anymore, man."
  12. ARMA 3 2014 [Video Game], Bohemia Interactive a.s., The East Wind, New Dawn, "Gentlemen, as you may have heard, our forces on Altis were unable to secure the airport. At ease, Corporal Kerry. As it turns out, there wasn't a chance in hell that we were ready for what awaited us. CSAT got one over on us this time - and intel suggests they're ready to hit back at any moment. Truth is, if we don't hold what we've taken over here, this whole operation is a wash. So - with Stratis under our control - we're going to head back and dig in. Now, keep in mind - in spite of Corporal Kerry's 'debrief' - we're not exactly sure what's happened here. As such, keep an eye out for any suspicious activity. Until MEDCOM says otherwise, 'Captain Miller' - along with his team - are not recognized as friendly. And - while we're on the subject, Corporal - were it up to me, you'd be stuck here spit-shining latrines until a court-martial deemed you fit for duty. Lucky for you, command doesn't feel likewise. But make no mistake, you fuck up just once - you endanger any of my men - and you're gone. Dismissed."
