Aeronautical steel production
- Workforce
- All (Month 1-3)
- 2 Engineers, 5 skilled workers, x unskilled workers (Month 4-7)
-Project Description:
- We developed a high strength, low weight variety of steel back in Bearland. We should now try to adapt those systems for use here. The Aeronautical Steel is a significantly less advanced version of the alloy we used. Target values are to be 3 times as light as steel (considering our sword is 8 times as light) , while being just as strong, if not slightly stronger. It's ability to retain an unnaturally sharp edge is not focused upon, and might thus be compromised.
Breach loading Musket

- 2 Engineers, 5 skilled workers, x unskilled workers (Month
Description :
A simple, economic and standardized breach loading musket. Mass producible, reliable, and cheap should be priorities in it's design.
Steam Powered Torpedo
-Workforce
- Us+ 3 engineers (Month
- 3 engineers (Month 9-12)
Description:
A powerful, 2-3 meters long steam powered torpedo. Uses volcanium both as propulsion and warhead. Simple inertial guidance system. Relatively short ranged due to it's small size, which allows it to be launched from virtually any ship.
Airship
- Workforce
- Us + 2 Engineers, 5 skilled workers, x unskilled workers (Month 9-12)
- Description :
Taking advantage of our newly developed aeronautical steel, this highly advanced airship (inspired by Bearland designs, which probably use some for cargo transport) is, rather than our previous blimp, a semi-rigid design. The aeronautical steel, which is significantly stronger than the duraluminum often used, but has the same weight, allows us to easily build a large airship without running into significant structural troubles. This increases structural integrity and crew protection, as well as allowing higher speeds.
