Revisiting The Great Airship Robbery: A High-Flying Steampunk Heist

By Charlie Stayton, Behind the Die

Hey there, adventurers!

If you've been following my work, you know I love crafting thrilling stories and immersive adventures. But in all the excitement around Shadows of Coexistence, I realized I haven’t talked about one of my past adventures in a while—The Great Airship Robbery!

For those unfamiliar, The Great Airship Robbery is an action-packed adventure for Tephra: The Steampunk Roleplaying Game. It throws players into a high-stakes heist aboard a luxurious airship, where intrigue, danger, and sky-high thrills await. Whether you're playing as dashing rogues, cunning saboteurs, or reluctant heroes caught in the chaos, there’s plenty of room for creativity and mayhem.

Here’s a taste of what you can expect:
🛠 Steampunk Shenanigans – Expect clockwork contraptions, airship gadgets, and experimental technology that can either save the day or explode spectacularly.
🎭 Deception & Diplomacy – Will you charm your way past the guards, or take a more... explosive approach? The adventure gives plenty of opportunities for social intrigue and quick thinking.
⚔ High-Octane Action – From daring duels on the deck to harrowing escapes in the skies, there’s no shortage of pulse-pounding encounters.
💰 The Ultimate Prize – What’s on board this airship that’s worth the risk? A fortune in stolen goods? A dangerous secret? Maybe both? That’s for the players to uncover.

If you’re looking for a fun, fast-paced adventure with a distinct steampunk flair, The Great Airship Robbery is definitely worth a look. Have you played it before? I’d love to hear your stories of how your crew tackled the heist—successfully or otherwise!
