	Steampunk - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		As a continuing play on the cyber/steam-punk naming convention, there have been a handful of divergent terms based on the general conceits of steampunk, although dissecting such a fringe genre is mostly a frivolous exercise in semantics.
		"Clockpunk" (so called because of the use of clockwork machinations, as opposed to steam-engine) is one of the more relatively prominent, inspired by the "ahead-of-their-time" designs of Leonardo da Vinci and set during the Renaissance era or a fantasy equivalent thereof.
		The term was coined in the GURPS role-playing supplement GURPS Steampunk, and appears most famously in Terry Pratchett's Discworld novels, in which things we would consider "modern technology" are invented with a combination of Renaissance technology and, perhaps, magic.

		Something like Paul J. McAuley's "Pasquale's Angel" which, to my knowledge, doesn't involve magic but simply a 'clockpunk' development of technology, seems to meet most tests for 'plausibility.' "The Difference Engine" by William Gibson & Bruce Sterling is more confusing for me to judge, and I haven't read it in...

	Random GURPS Ideas
		I was thinking about the differences between steampunk and "clockpunk" settings and an episode of Scientific American Frontiers about hydrogen-powered cars.
		On the program, they kept pointing out that hydrogen wasn't a power source—it's a method of storing power.
		Well, for clockpunk, that means that everything will be ultimately powered by steam anyway (though I suppose it could be powered by human effort, but there's something...

		The world is designed in two eras, the first is a high magic DND environment and the second, still high magic is clockpunk and arcanotech.
		Would anyone here be interested in taking a look at pieces of the material as posts here on the board.

		Of course I'm impatient, but at least it isn't coming out at the end of February/beginning of June like every other damned book I want to buy, so I'll more likely be able to actually afford it.
		I have been thinking of running an anachronistic clockpunk Europe game based on the conflict between the Catholic Church's clockpunk and Protestant England's alchemy (decried as witchcraft by the Catholic Church, of course).
		I hadn't though about what to use as a system, so I shall have to take a look at this and see what it looks like compaired to what I'd like it to do.

		Today I was thinking about this and that, and I had a vision of a chariot, with a aeliopile (you know, one of the "teakettle" steam "engines") hooked up to a set of driving wheels in front.
		Note 2: assume that an apprentice magic user can become capable of casting the appropriate spell with about ten years non-adventuring practice.
		Plus the wings would have enough weight capacity to have a winch/pulley sorta thingey, which would lower cargo and people down and bring them up...Plus little hook-holes on the wings, so mechanics and others working around the ships don't fall (they attach cords to harnesses and hook the cords to the hook-holes on the ships...

		I mean, one cool Idea I've heard that hasn't been posted is Bloodbowl Coaches, another is Wrestlers, Helrin-scum's Clockpunk universe.
		For my two cents, I think a game of Civilisation style thing would be good - the nations aspect of the League worked, the negotiations, diplomacy, doubledealing and espionage, the secrets and lies were all great fun.

		This thought probably horrifies no one but historians and archaeologists, but I find it somewhat unsettling, and I want to play off of it to emphasize Arumo's lack of solidity.
		Jan 8 2001, 05:40 PM I was raised on cyberpunk, so one of my little goals for this game is to make sure that nothing anywhere overtly resembles anything like cyberpunk, steampunk, clockpunk, biopunk, retropunk, bronzepunk, gothic punk, genepunk, sushipunk, magipunk, nanopunk, or any variation thereof.
		If anything, I think organic technology has a strong edge of the exotic -- kinda like Dune for some reason although I could not begin to explain why.
