Leviathans is the game of turn-of-the-century (last century, 1910ish) ship-to-ship combat in the sky. Personally, I'm more a fan of swashbuckling sky pirates rather than Imperial Navies. I'm willing to bet there's room for mercenaries and rogue nations in the world of Leviathans.

Attack of the Real Life
Why is it whenever you manage to set aside a little time to indulge in something fun, Real Life always forces its way in? I find time to game a little and >bam< timecrunch. New pictures and even a batrep or 2 soon. (Not as soon as I'd like though.)

Atlas Obscura: Kinetic Steam Works
Atlas Obscura is a great place for inspiration and story hooks. Here's an article on Kinetic Steam Works , a Bay Area collective dedicated to restoring steam-powered kinetic art.

Report from the B.R.T.S.
The British Royal Terranautical Society is pleased to report the successful test launch of the Subterranean Scoutship "Antaeus."
The "Antaeus" is just about finished. I mean to add some suitable Victorian scrollwork and the name "Antaeus" above the door.

Fire It Up!
At a certain distance above the Earth and below the Sky and adjacent to some other nonsense lie certain Aetheric Nexus, holes in space and some say even time. Trained Airship pilots steer clear of these "Doldrums of the Air" but for Sky Pirates and other Men of Adventure the "Sky Sargasso" is a swift but dangerous short-cut or a convenient but treacherous port in a storm. Surviving the Sargasso is the mark of a true Airship Captain.
But it's all really just an excuse for me to drone on about games and gaming, miniatures and terrain, and other random chunks of mental flotsam and jetsam.
Enjoy!
