Nonetheless, the island retains a very attractive capital, also called Agios Efstratios, while preserving a rather unspoiled Mediterranean environment with pristine beaches. On 19 February 1968, an earthquake (7.1 on the Richter scale) demolished most of the houses, which were replaced by concrete prefabricated buildings laid out in a military-like camp formation. Exiles here included Ilias Iliou, Stefanos Sarafis, Dimitris Glinos, Kostas Varnalis, Tassos Leivaditis, Yiannis Ritsos, Menelaos Lountemis, Manos Katrakis and Mikis Theodorakis. During the Greek military junta of 1967–74, the island was again used as a prison for political dissidents. After Makronisos it became the largest prison island in Aegean. The first communists were exiled to the island with the Idionymon law of Venizelos, later during the Metaxas Regime and again during the Greek civil war. The island was used to house political prisoners in internal exile since the 1930s.
More information on the game as well as the Community Alpha will be announced during E3.The Democracy Museum, established in 2007 In the Stratis Showcase video below, some of the island’s points of interest are shown along with Arma 3’s "world in motion." Just know, once the Community Alpha is out, I’ll be watching from the best sniper spots.” “The fact that Stratis is relatively small, compared to the gigantic Limnos area, should not fool you the island has enough space to facilitate all kinds of gameplay, including massive multiplayer battles. I’m sure players will love the scenery: the military camps, airbase, radar site, romantic coves - not to forget the shipwrecks and rocks scattered underwater.
"Mostly because of the dense vegetation, it feels different than Limnos, and by adding many fictional features, we’ve enhanced the original realistic terrain.
“Stratis fits our setting perfectly," said Ivan Buchta, creative director. The area will also be featured in the upcoming Community Alpha. The island was "originally supposed to be Greece’s first green island, relying completely on renewable energy." It was instead repurposed as a military base for the US Army task force due to its strategic position. Stratis is situated in the North Aegean and stretches over 19 square kilometres, or for those of you who are metric system impaired, it's around 7.33 square miles. Bohemia Interactive has confirmed Stratis, an additional island for Arma 3 which it teased earlier in the month.
