Armoured cars and a light tank

Milovice, Czechoslovakia

While the above photo is from Czechoslovakia, the french made FT-17 tank shown was exported widely and adopted by many countrys across the world after the first world war.  And the Armoured Cars could easily be in the service of the Italian, Croatian, Bulgarian, Greek or Turkish military or police.

Just in case your players start thinking about causing some trouble....

Just a couple photos of Zagreb, Croatia

Zagreb

On a personal note, in 1999, I had the good fortune to spend the year in South East Europe - 6 months in Croatia, 3 months in Kosovo, and 3 months in Hungary.  I absolutely fell in love with that corner of the world.  Sadly, I haven't been able to return yet.  The architecture is so classical, the cultures warm and beautiful, and the women.... pardon me while I swoon.

At the time, I managed to learn enough Slavic, and Hungarian to 'get along', and I was always surprised by how much English the locals spoke.  I'd be lying if I said communication was 'easy', but we usually managed.  I made it a practice (on the suggestion of some other gentlemen I was acquainted with who had been there a little longer) not to discuss politics or religion.  The events of the previous few years made me think discussing that wouldn't be such a great idea.

I'm pretty sure I've stood where this photo was taken.  Or very much near by.

I'm half-tempted to change part of the campaign, so that the players don't enter "Dream Zagreb", and instead write/modify the scenario so that they're in real-world Zagreb.  Its one of the things I'm undecided about - but I'll probably hold off on deciding until I read the new edition of Horror on the Orient Express.
