Just some for the great books available - frustratingly, I don't have time to absorb them all!
Whats the humdrum about Chaps? Adventures into Victorian Science Fiction and Steampunk with ramblings about Aeronefs, Dirigibles, Land Ironclads, Anarchists, Dinosaur Hunting, Terranefs, Aquanefs, Mad Scientists, and all manner of electric contraptions and steam conveyances. It may not make sense, but there will be claret and a nice cheese board at the end. Tally-Ho and "VĂ´tre dans une sauce au vin blanc!"

Zeppelin attack routes
I was perusing some of the many fantastic tomes at the library this week and found a great German account of WW1 Zeppelin raids on Britain which included this chart of 'standard routes'. Should a set of such plans fall into British agents' hands, an aeronef ambush could be set to pounce on the would be attacks. All the makings of a neat scenario!

Fascinating! I lived near Great Yarmouth, which was the target for one of the earliest Zeppelin attacks, and worked near St. Peters Plain in the town where one of the most destructive bombs fell. A good table of the events of the raid can be found here...
