Trying to get my head around the “technology” of this industrial fantasy game 🙂 So I started looking for films set in the mid 19th century.

Deadwood – 1870s goldrush town in america

– guns are around, 6 shooters and rifles – but mainly knives… lots of knives.

– newspapers, and even a telegraph in the later seasons.

The Last Samurai – 1877 satsuma rebellion.

– guns and cannon. (and swords and bows).

– repeating shotgun (with about 4 shots) is a “special gun” for the sergeant.

– gatling guns appear at the end of the movie…. army destroying!

– but tactics and clever baiting allows swords & bows to still outdo the rifle-armed infantry. (until said gatling guns appear)

Gangs of New York

– oh good lord! knives, cleavers, clubs, wood & nails… But a wonderful view of crowded city life.

I’ve been looking at “victorian” era things, mixed with a bit of gothic steampunk?

Anyone else got any keywords that help identify images?

What happened to the “gather information” downtime job? I’ve been listening to the itmeJP “RollPlay” series, and they are always doing some gather information over their downtimes… but in the book from drivethrough there is no mention of a gather information downtime activity 🙁

has it just been rolled into the “aquire asset” or “long term project” activities?

Just picked up Blades in the Dark – and it looks FANTASTIC!
