Gasbags
« on: May 25, 2016, 09:35:22 PM »
As you've may or may not have gathered aerial travel is a big thing in the world of Darmonica, especially frontier regions like Alyeska. Talked a little about aircraft and a huge amount on skyships, but another type of airship has only been mentioned in passing. This type is effectively the zeppelins and blimps of our own world but in Darmonica itself they form the backbone of long distance air travel and bulk carriage.

So strap on your flying cap as we take a leisurely look at Darmonica's so-called 'gasbags'.

Nice! :)

So do the gasbags have a single gas bag/tank and actually look quite like a zeppelin, or are they formed differently?

They have multiple gas cells like real life zeppelins, least all the gas escapes if there is a rip.
