Roman Steam Galley - Ave Imperator - Fini !
Buzzbomb:
All right, but apart from the sanitation, the medicine, education, wine, public order, irrigation, roads, a fresh water system, and the Steam Engine, what have the Romans ever done for us?
This is a full on inspiration build from Nonobars most excellent idea of a Steam Roman ship on Whatif Modeller

I had parts of a Roman Galley left over from another build where I built this IceRigger

But as a point of difference, I wanted to go side paddlewheeler and show a bit more of the engine gubbins
using some of the very early vertical boiler types as a rough guide, but going for impression only.
So early days, but enthusiasm is high.
Thanks Nonobars for the terrific inspiration :thumbsup:

Excellent Quod-si, Vapor Romana nave! This must be the 30BC version, since that's when the Romans introduced the twin ship boiler engines.
