The War Machines
The Victorian age, fuelled with Infernium, with the shadows from nightmares creeping around the borders of man’s domain is a time fraught with dangers – not merely within the confines of this green and pleasant land, but in all the places that the Great Empire has dared to stretch its reach. With the Empire’s reliance on the colonies, the need for imported resources, and the great Middle Classes desire for trinkets, novelties and objects d’art, more and more enterprising young adventurers have left the relative safety of Britain’s shores to find their fortune in foreign climes. To that end, to keep her subjects safe, the Empress has seen fit to seek the means to arm her military accordingly... with armour, and cannon and tracks...

Playing far from the safety of home is very risky for the prospective President or Faction Leader, but the rewards can be immeasurable!
