Airships (Blimps and Zeppelins)

I'm of the opinion that this technology should be given a second chance. When taken to steampunk extremes, I think they can be pretty awesome and enormous. And once in a while, they blow up pretty spectacularly. Impractical? Sure...but they are definitely majestic and inflatable, and that's gotta be worth something.

RATING: 68%

Well, there are other, less flammable gases to use. In fact, some may say it was kind of a wonky idea to use the most flammable gas there is for zeppelins, but what do I know about big blimps?

You know enough, Glenn. You know enough.

They look really awesome. That's enough reason to bring them back (zeppelins).
