// Field Report — Status: Dormant

The Namalsk build is on ice. Not abandoned. Iced over. The mods are tested, the AI is tuned, the loadouts written, the loot tables drafted. The island itself? Still up there in the cold, waiting. When Sakhal hands the torch back, the gates open and we go again. Pack warm.

The File

Where this project started. Namalsk was the proving ground — the first build of the rigzHouse formula. Hardcore tune, heavy mods, no compromises. Everything Sakhal carries forward, Namalsk taught us first.

Snowy bridge
The IslandHardcore Namalsk — the original Russian arctic survival map. Snow, radiation, anomalies, a buried bunker, and a sky that's never warm.
Platform in the cold
The Build19 mods including Expansion AI, InediaInfectedAI, SNAFU weapons, RUSForma vehicles, FOG armor. Tuned tight. No SNAFUKivaari. No pay-to-skip. No casino mechanics.
AI firefight
The CastExpansion AI factions patrolling the island. InediaAI infected that actually fight back. Custom loadouts. Block system on. Cold mechanic on.
Shelter in winter
The RigOffshore rig endgame. The Phoenix Rig — top-tier SNAFU rifles, fully kitted. Hard to reach. Worth the swim.
Winter survival
The RulesHardcore as Nick wrote them. Stamina drain from blocks instead of damage. SearchBodyToViewCargo off. AccuracyMax capped at 0.70. Fair, brutal, balanced.
Cold roads
The ReturnComing back when the cold calls. Same tune, sharper teeth. Same house, different room.

Why It's Off

Running two hardcore servers is two full-time hobbies. Sakhal is the headline build right now — new map, more mods, deeper meta loop. Namalsk gets the bench, not the bin. When the rotation comes back around, the file opens.
