Analytical Engines are of special importance for the calculation of complex processes, especially in ether travel. The characters are invited to visit the Silesian Analytical Engine Productions facilities in Wroclaw where they are introduced to the innovative analytical engine ‘Ordination Fabricate OF 2001', specially designed for operations in the ether. For this purpose, the hosts are planning to test the ‘Old Fritz', as they fondly call the machine, on board the ether zeppelin ‘Von Neumann', where the analytical engine is supposed to break a calculating speed record and make the headlines of the world's newspapers.
What starts out as a simple publicity event suddenly leads the adventurers right in the middle of a criminal investigation and then onto an action-loaded maiden voyage, with demanding tasks for all types of player characters. It requires skills in social interaction, a sharp mind, quick reflexes - but also accurate marksmanship.
The Appendix includes an elaborate article on analytical engines in the alternate universe of Space: 1889 and provides optional rules for using these unique artifacts in the game.
This adventure is written for the Ubiquity Version of the Space:1889 RPG.
