Mr Stevens and his two sons have established an outpost in
Steam Valley. Coming from Birmingham to Steam Valley to take advantage of the
networking opportunities and all the specialist services available.

Her Majesty’s British Army has taken a keen interest in Mr
Stevens’ plans and provided a number of soldiers to assist him in his work.
Barings Bank has lent the money to Mr Stevens and is looking forward to
excessive returns once the equipment is ready for sale.
Mr Stevens has concentrated his experiments on extending the
use of steam as a motive force. Combining Madam Curious’ Radium power source
with high pressure boilers Mr Stevens has produced a trio of new products.
First up is his steam powered tank, armoured in steel and
armed with a large cannon it has a range of over 15 miles and a top speed of nearly
5 miles per hour.

Next is his armoured suits – to make what he calls – “Steel
Men”. These suits are armoured with high grade steel and have motors that
assist the men inside to move them. The energy generated by the back pack steam
engine provides enough power for the soldiers to move the suits at a run as
well as powering their rifles, steam burners or machine guns.

Finally is his greatest invention. Flying suits with large
wings that can carry a man great distances at heights of up to 250 feet. The
flying back packs are powered by pressurised steam that flaps the wings on the
pilot’s command. The “Red Devils” are the elite unit of the force and have
already made a name for themselves in the valley with their displays of daring
and co-ordinated flights.
