I just really like the idea of the gear. So much engineering can be accomplished through one.
So when i see it on steampunk, I get the idea of a culture surrounded by the gear. Like an engineering guild controlling everything, or something.
I just think it looks really cool too, but again, only in art and story.
I fucking love Dinosaurs. You throw in tameable, rideable dinosaurs into a setting and I will accept all kinds of absolute bullshit in it. Regardless of how ill-fitting it might be to the setting. I will ride a Dinosaur into battle in your engineer's paradise Hard Sci-Fi and only death itself will stop me.
What are your views on space-steampunk that treats the solar system much as 19th century astronomers would have imagined it?
So mars is covered in huge canal networks and ancient ruins; Venus is a tropical jungle planet and so-on.
yeah no
i mean a regular christian human
like
>90% of abtuctions are depicted in hick towns or straight up farmland
>abductees relinquish their past selves and become rational beings of logic and spess
i don't buy it
Does it have to be actual dinosaurs or will any massive reptile suffice?
Like, say, dinosaur-like alien life-forms, or post-apocalyptic mutant lizards the size of a bus?
Dunno, I've never read sci-fi with abductions, but I have seen regular christians (not fundamentalists, but regular people who believe in christian god) as part of spaceship crews or something.
Look into near-future military sci-fi written by American authors, there's plenty of christians there.
I like that too. Like Space 1889.
Check out Mutant Future. I mean, if you haven't already. I'd kill to run a Weird Future game in it.
Also, for me, goddamn do I love Raygun Gothic as an aesthetic. Similarly, I like Soma. The whole wheezing, breathing, living technology was very interesting to me.

THEY SAID CHRISTIAN SO IT'S RELEVANT
I also especially like steampunk that is in a different setting outside of historical earth.
Iron Kingdoms is a good setting (but I despise any of the games). It has a little too much magic for my taste, but cygnar's aesthetic I really dig.
Tephra is a decent setting, but the races and stuff are super weeb. But I bought the RPG book and I like it. I would just replace all the fantasy races with humans subtypes.
