The Island & Landscape
Draskova is a remote, fog-laden island lying far from the busy shipping routes, surrounded by cold, restless waters. Its dense pine forests cover much of the rugged terrain, giving way to long stretches of grey pebble beaches. Scattered around it lie smaller, uninhabited islets — some barren, others overgrown — where occasional, curious discoveries still await those who dare to land. Thick fog can roll in without warning, swallowing the land in silence. Beneath the surface, rich coal seams once fueled both industry and ambition.
Hidden Operations
In the 1950s, the ČSSR and the Soviet Union jointly established an “Agricultural Research Station” on Draskova.
Official reports spoke of timber production, fishing, and mining. Yet, in the restricted northern sector, certain areas remained unmarked on official maps — and guarded far beyond the needs of any factory or harbor.
Abandoned infrastructure
To support the industries and the garrison, clusters of concrete apartment blocks were built across the island — functional, uniform, and now eerily silent. In addition to these larger complexes, small villages for local workers and families were scattered around, their modest homes standing empty alongside the more imposing structures. Streets once filled with workers, soldiers, and their families now lie deserted.
The Disappearance
By the late 1980s, a mysterious incident struck.
Within hours, the island was left empty, as if its people had vanished into the fog.
Looks great, can’t wait
love me some map lore! look great!
Thanks! I’m trying to link key locations on the map with a lot of detail and lore, so that each place feels like it has its own story.
Looks great! Im keen to try it!
Looks awesome!
Environmental storytelling has me excited, I love exploring and investigating
Damn, that’s impressive. Now I’m excited to see where this goes. :))
Rich in detail and lore too. Love it.🙌
will this have custom weather effects or are you using an existing mod like Atmospheric Weather?
Not sure yet, as of now I’m using the Fog mod by EO.
But I would like to increase the density and make more it dynamic. Not sure how I will do that as of yet.
Happy to help with your weather system if required.
yeah EO's the guy that makes Atmospheric Weather.
i only asked because my server runs AW. some maps with custom weather effects aren't compatible with other mods like AW or WCS Weather
Thank you verry much!
I understand, right now I'm not sure if I implement my own or use EO's weather systems.
Regarding weather mod compatibility with community made terrains using their own customised weather....
If the weather configs aren't renamed by the terrain author then mod compatibility with other weather mods should, in most cases, be guaranteed.
UPDATE:
Another section on Draskova has been completed.
The new Jelení Hora ||"Deer Mountain"|| section is a headland with hilly woodland and the small village of Svetlin ||"Place of Light"||.
The village of Svetlin takes its name from the Svetlonos ||"Lightbringer"|| lighthouse located there.
This headland is a strategically important position for monitoring the west coast of the island, which is why there is a small abandoned guard boat dock.
In addition, there is only one road leading into the area, making it easy to control who enters and who leaves.
Červený Strážce ||"Red Guardian"|| is the second lighthouse, overlooking the west coast of Draskova.
This looks great. Can't wait 🔥
I love this. Keep it up.
Loving the Red Guardian, retexturing assets to create your own lore is a fantastic touch . 
very appreciated 🙏
