5.0 out of 5 stars
A wonderful supplement to the slightly cockeyed world of Steampunk,
By
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: GURPS Steam-Tech: A Compendium of Mervelous Devices for the Age of Steam (Paperback)
This is William H. Stoddard's expansion on his outstanding GURPS Steampunk. It contains an amazing number of real and mythical pieces of equipment that can be used in a Steampunk campaign. These items range from the ingenious and realistic to the might-have-been to outright Victorian fantasy.
Not only does the book contain full descriptions of these strange and wonderous gizmos but it frequently includes humorous comments about their effectiveness, sometimes in the form of advertising intended to sell the item. My favorite was: The villain aimed for the hero's head And surely would have shot him dead And sent him to his eternal rest, If not for his Magnetic Anti-Bullet Vest! The whole book is like this, another winner from the redoubtable Mr. Stoddard! |
