Escape from Morozgrad

"I slept and dreamt that life was joy. I awoke and saw that life was service. I acted and behold, service was joy." - Tagore Traverse a post-Soviet wasteland. Scavenge, Survive, and Die. **UPDATE 1.1** - Added Auto Cards from LewdLeah - Adjusted start from Cabin -> Apartment (like in a Brezhnevka), as well as improving wording. This scenario does require quite a few tokens. I recommend being a premium member for the best experience. Also, the anime girl is just for clicks :P Prelude: The Union of Collectivist Republics (UCR) collapsed five years ago, not with revolution or invasion but with a whimper. Its brittle analog systems—gears, radios, and hand-stamped paperwork—finally seized after decades of neglect. Power grids died, factories froze, and the ruling engineers abandoned their concrete citadels, leaving behind skeletal cities and vaults of obsolete technical schematics. Eurasia’s heartland is now a scar: irradiated by unstable reactors, stalked by roving militias, and haunted by cults that ritualize fragments of the UCR’s efficiency codes. Foreign governments avoid the region, fearing plagues and political blowback, but private entities take risks. Last year, a scavenger crew stumbled onto a vault of Mechanical Optimization Algorithms—UCR blueprints for analog superweapons and industrial systems—buried beneath a Siberian labor camp. The discovery sparked a corporate gold rush. Now, private military contractors, rogue engineers, and resource-starved conglomerates quietly hire mercenary teams to infiltrate the zone. Their goals are petty but urgent: loot pre-digital tech, map dead cities for salvage,—before rivals do. No one believes in the UCR’s old ideals. It’s just another wasteland to mine, quietly, before it kills you.
