I wake up from a nightmare. Face down in black sand. Looks like I made it to Sakhal, but where are the others I saw when boarding the refugee ships from the mainland? Has the Sakhal archipelago been overrun already? Only one way to find out...

—Unknown survivor[1]


Sakhal is a remote volcanic archipelago in Russia's far east. Being a snow biome, survival in Sakhal is much more dangerous than Chernarus and Livonia, and warm clothing and any means to thaw the frozen food found throughout the island is mandatory. Luckily, being an archipelago, survivors have plenty of places to catch fish.

Geography[]

Sakhal is around 83km² in area excluding its ice sheets.[2]

Trivia[]

  • The map's topological data is based upon Tanoa from Arma 3 to be able to allocate development resources more effectively.[2]
  • It is heavily inspired by the Kamchatka Peninsula in the easternmost part of Russia.
