This is our page on our ongoing alternate Victorian Science Fiction world(s) and campaign from (1888 to 1920). You will also find various other information and inspiration on all things VSF, such as WOTWs, Dino Hunting, Steam Powered Whatever and in general, Victorian era mayhem. My Thanks Don M
The Martians have invaded, time to return the favor!
Detriments you call us? Detriments? Well I want to remind you that it was detriments like us that built this bloody Empire AND the Izzat of the bloody Raj!
I oft times tell Ootah about Englishmens. How they give names to dogs and take off hats to womans, and march into battle, left - right, left -right with rifles on their shoulders.
I was toying with this idea, converting these to Maxims and use the Martian Askari infantry with German officers. On a converted to steam Martian screw galley.
Two story line possibilities here one it's German Martian auxiliaries craft.
Two, it's a Martian craft of a city state allied to Germany. I'm leaning to the second..)
The Ah'ny uthar is a Martian ship on an uprated hull, retrofitted with a steam engine. It carries Martian main ordinance: a heavy gun to the rear and a Rogue gun to the front. Assistance has been provided by the French who have installed the power plant and added anti personnel weapons and have some of their crew on board. It is similar in design to the Texas and the Ranger but has an extended rear deck section and more powerful engine.
I have 4 Sung Chinese ships that didn't fit into anything else but, they will work with a new rigging as a Martian canal ship. I'll crew them with a mixture of High Martians and Askari. They have a mix of weapons also. I should have them done this week.

A battery of thought weapons - now THATS a Broadside!

So sort of a German version of this:
