Big Bangs

My apologies to any who have been disturbed by the loud nosies coming from the Vernian Sea over the last few and next few days.

Some of us have been practising with our Ironclads, in preperation for Fleet Week. For some of us, these vessels are something we are new to, and we need to be able to handle them with at least moderate accuracy. i.e have the pointy bit going forwards, and the blunt bit staying behind us. Not to mention having cannonballs fly towards the enemy, I hope I’m not getting too finnicky here.

In case we need a method of last resort, I also purchased an armoured airship. It tends to fire a lot of cannoballs without great accuracy, a problem with design I think and not my aiming. I hope never to have to use this massive weapon, but I’m prepared to use it to protect New Babbage from invaders. Unless they have lots of fresh bananas of course, and may be considered reasonably civilised :)

In order for me to take part in the Fleet Week, I’ve had to build and mobilise an approximation of the human form which I can sit in and control. This is easier than trying to alter all the controls to fit my form. If you saw some of the standards used by some builders, well….plenty of rust and not enought robust.
