Heute ist wieder #MeerMittwoch und dieses Mal geht es nicht um #Steampunk, sondern um #Solarpunk. Wie könnte in einer Welt, in der keine #fossilenEnergien mehr verwendet werden, der #Seehandel aufrecht erhalten werden?
Die Antwort: Im Prinzip so, wie der Seehandel vor der Dampfmaschine funktionierte: Mit #Frachtseglern. Wobei Windantrieb nicht zwangsläufig auf ein klassisches #Segelschiff hinaus läuft. Einige aktuelle Entwicklungen in einem Artikel der "Yacht":

A few, well, actually eleven years ago I started noodling around with a #writing project that resulted in a #steampunk novel I finally self-published recently. It also has facets of #NaturalHistory #Entomology #Whisky #Solarpunk (maybe? I'm not sure.) #ScienceFiction #AlternativeReality with a dash of #LGBTQ content just for fun. Check it out if you're interested. Boosts appreciated!

Lovely steampunk people here. Or kiwis in general. Has anyone been to the Steampunk NZ Festival in Oamaru? And if so, does one have to be equipped with goggles, a blunderbuss and an airship to attend, or can one pop by wearing regular duds?
Jürgen Hubert commented on Castle Falkenstein by Michael Alyn Pondsmith
Most #Steampunk #ttrpg settings have the problem that they tend to gloss over the evils of Imperialism and Colonialism. #CastleFalkenstein fares better than most, since it portrays Imperialism as something that ought to be opposed more often than not. It is perhaps unfortunate that the point-of-view protagonist is a white male 20th century American, but it should not be too hard to include other characters.
Still, I don't particularly care for the Castle Falkenstein rules systems, and I'm not sure what I'd use it instead. Yes, there was a #GURPS version published for it (which I recommend as a generic "World Guide" even if you don't use the rules, as well as the supplement Castle Falkenstein - The Ottoman Empire), but they'd need to be updated for 4E...

Think of #steampunk, a subculture that wove together artists, makers, costumers, fiction writers, and tinkerers in endlessly creative ways. My old pal #RogerWood was the world's most improbable steampunk: he was a gay ex-navy gunner who grew up in a small town in the maritimes but moved to Toronto where he became the world's most accomplished steampunk clockmaker.
