Introduction and Background

You are a reject. Though the USSR is theoretically a modern, tolerant state you are unacceptable because of your views, sexuality, race, appearence or taste in music. Or perhaps you just pissed off someone powerful.

So you are now a conscript in coldest, most isolated, most dilapidated, ancient shithole of a base in the whole expanse of mighty Russia. Base 58
