In a sudden rush of creativity I've worked out how most of the (brass, after all it's yellow) submarine's systems work For example the airlock will contain sea-water-ingesting, drinking- -excreting nilmergs
I'm still having problems with two key systems:
What do we think the Mostali would use for long distance communications with a submarine? I thought of lowering a large bell into the water back at base and bashing out slow morse code messages Any other thoughts? Spirits? Special sorcery? I'd like communications to be slow and difficult
What would be the primary propulsion system? I'd like some analogue of a nuclear plant - arcane and potentially dangerous
For the reserve system I'm assuming there are a couple of Jolanti-sized hand cranks in the engine room It would become the Jolanti Wrangler's job to ensure that commands relayed from the Captain are converted into instructions to the Jolanti
Any thoughts?
