Maybe a steampunk + Philippine culture combination?

Just imagine Colonial times in Manila, with steam trains and coal miners on the side. Very Happy

No. As previously discussed, we leave the Filipino feel to the Bulan setting that BJ is writing.
**Fluff Team head officially puts foot down on that idea**

Steampunk...is not exactly in synch with post-apocalypse. Any mechanical elements and steampunk-esque technologies will, in general, be leftovers from the Age of Gods, rather than newly crafted mortal tech (except for one or two rare cases).

But steampunk kobolds...

Ok, ok, so RP-based is out. And steampunk kobolds are in.

This reminds me of WoW goblins, as they are tinkers and techies of their world.

Kobolds invented gatling gun during godfall wars I'm telling you and now they are developing gatling rail gun that fires bullets that fire radioactive shuriken. That's how techies kobolds are.

Curious note... do you guys love gnomes?
