I still want the D. The D is love, the D is life. The D is bully.
Rewind, can't keep going
My mind keeps replaying
That night when we dove in
But now I'm sinking

Boring, the lot of you. Steam Trains, how pedestrian.

You're voting for a cargo zeppelin and a steam flamethrower, one of which is literally the second-most mass and volume-inefficient transport method on the planet and the other is a war crime that won't even kill people effectively.

The superheated steam flamethrower will at least be marginally useful inside buildings as a sort of nondestructive area weapon, but the cargo zeppelin has zero redeeming qualities.

Steam Thrower! It even has a steam-punk person-name and everything!

For anyone who is confused we *do* have just one, single, lone design this turn. There's a lot of double-voting going on.

Ah, I had assumed that was deliberate and I had missed a note somewhere.  Well, the votebox is pretty thoroughly inundated...I guess I can remove all double-votes and start fresh?

Honestly I just double voted because everyone else seemed to be doing so. Since we basically still had one clear winner I personally don't see the harm.

Shadowclaw, tric, taricus, and Happerry all lost their votes.

That's enough difference for the rifle to win (or even the Steam Thrower, but I guess everyone wants traitors to die non-horrific deaths >.>)

Anyway, Chiefwaffles, is the steam rifle going to be one of the things that works in this universe because steam power? Because right now what would logically happen is that you fill up your buttstock container full of high-pressure steam, it cools down and a few minutes later condenses into water and reduces its volume by 1600x, removing any semblance of pressure from your rifle and rendering the weapon useless, to say *nothing* of how incredibly stupid it is to hold a container of steam (superheated steam if steam cores are actually anything like a typical steam device) that is AT LEAST 100 degrees Celsius.
I'd like an answer to this question before I vote. On the one hand, I kinda like the idea of a steam rifle, on the other, as Madman points out, it makes no sense realistically.

Also, don't forget to contact your local Eldritch Being(s), so that they can help with our mission to destroy the universe.
