Looks nice (it was from Sylt that Hengest & Horsa set out for Britain) but I'm glad you're back - there was a debate on the best 3D engine (guess which I recommended!) on javagaming.org but they're down for maintenance ATM...
But at that time, Sylt wasn't a real island. It became one around 1362 IIRC due to a surge. Anyway, i've already noticed that JGO is down, but is this really for maintenance? If it is, this is a very bad decision...kicking a whole site for days just to do maintenance...google will love it...
