Technology
- Steam power (Martian red coal is hyper-efficient increase power yields allowing smaller engines - so powered penny-farthings or unicycles, jet packs, etc.)
- Iron and wood
- Cavorite (antigravity) plates allow sky vessels, easy transportation of bulk goods, etc.
- Ether ships using cavorite and air generators for 'Star Trek style' interplanetary travel.
- Weapons are normal for period (Martini-Henry's, field artillery etc.)
- Tesla weapons discovered and used but rare. Martian heat rays and black smoke not available/used
- Land ironclads (aided by cavorite) lumber about the battlefield - essentially land battleships
- All these wondrous new war machines hampered by military dogma that doesn't use them properly, preferring to stick with the tried and tested infantry/cavalry
- Walker machines developed for use in South America and the mountains of Tibet
- Tunnelling machines and submersibles (although both considered 'beastly')
- Difference and Analytical engines: telegraphy - but not across the Ether
- Genetic engineering and 'science as magic' developments typical of the Verne/Wells stories
- Golems and 'robots' replacing human slaves

By chance I came across this website whilst checking out Reveille II that is happening tomorrow. Some nice simple ideas for various bits of kit.
