Hey all, starting a dive into steampunk after playing largely in the medieval fantasy pool for campaigns. I’ve homebrewed before and odds are ill homebrew this world as well. Maybe making it a industrialized version of my old worlds. Would love ideas of things to implement and other aspects as well!
Consider healing tech. It sounds weird but a big part of what makes punk of all genres have an impact is the consequences of getting shot. You never see the few people that survive a fight casually walking away. So in thinking of your setting make sure to consider making the players afraid of getting wounded. Healing tech widely available pretty much kills all vibes as far as I see it.
