Space 1889 (Tabletop Game)	comment	Space 1889 is a Steampunk Tabletop Roleplaying Game by Frank Chadwick, and published first in 1988 by Game Designers Workshop, then by Heliograph Inc.It is set in an Alternate Universe Victorian era where the scientific theories of the day are true; a luminiferous aether fills the depths of space, which is what people use to travel from world to world in Cool Airships. Indeed, the game describes itself as Victorian-era science fiction. As the game is set in an alternate-Victorian era, all the great powers have colonies on the other planets.It had at least two Tabletop Game semi-spinoff/semi-expansions; Sky Galleons of Mars, which provided detailed rules for ship-to-ship combat, and the Soldier's Companion, which provided rules for playing a miniatures wargame.There was also a 1989 Computer RPG, Mars 1889, which is mostly forgotten today. Savage Worlds also has a reedition called Red Sands with Clockwork Publishing developing a version for the Ubiquity Engine (while also supporting the SW version).Paragon Software developed a Space: 1889 computer game in 1990.

Space 1889 (Tabletop Game) / int_1044a759	comment	Dying Race The canals are slowly decaying and cannot be repaired. Mars is about to become arid and basically uninhabitable again. Canal Martians generally more or less accept this, which the Europeans, who believe in Progress and sometimes in social darwinism, find offensive or a sign of weakness.

Space 1889 (Tabletop Game) / int_10789ec9	comment	Kaiser Reich: The antagonist often ends up as this, which is surprising given that Britain was more hostile to France and Russia in 1889, and there is nothing in the alternate history that would make them particularly more hostile. The current edition is a bit better about this. Though the villain of one published adventure is German, Germany is no longer the go-to antagonist of the game. The Mars sourcebook even has an excerpt from a German soldier showing disgust at the sheer brutality of the Belgian territories.

The city-dwelling Canal Martians who are roughly Renaissance-level but were once more advanced than (Victorian) humanity, nomadic Hill Martians, and flying mountain-dwelling High Martians.

In fact, the New Mexico Territory is even wilder (even called the Wild Wild West in the corebook), because it has essentially been declared a neutral zone between USA and CSA. There is no official government in the region, except for some larger towns that usually controlled by local businessmen. The North Polar Regions of Mars have this feeling. The only civilization being independent city-states on edge of a tundra like wilderness.

Space 1889 (Tabletop Game) / int_1c9537cd	comment	The Main Characters Do Everything: mostly justified. Most adventures take place far away from human civilization and the player characters find themselves needing to do a bit of everything. Also even in the most advanced, urban, human civilizations people are a lot less specialized and trained in a speciality than they are today. It is not too difficult for an amateur detective to have useful knowledge a professional police investigator does not, to mention a regular beat cop. Furthermore social status is greatly respected and can allow you to push professionals around. If Lord X wants to demonstrate to a professional teacher how teaching should be done, the teacher is very likely to put up with it and keep his groaning silent.

Space 1889 (Tabletop Game) / int_26e5c183	comment	Polluted Wasteland: Plenty of places on Earth in 1889 are a bit like this, much to the horror of the Canal Martians. Mars is an inversion, the now lost industrial society was not only very good at recycling, resource managing, waste care and building things to last, canal technology has saved much of the planet’s ecosystem. It is the slow collapse of this technology that creates wasteland.

Space 1889 (Tabletop Game) / int_2717a55e	comment	Bizarre Alien Psychology: Generally averted. Martians have human-like motivations. The game has a system of keywords indicating NPC motivations that can be randomized by rolling two six-sided dice; the same keywords are used for Martians and humans. Humans find Martian religion weird, morbid and obsessed with death and the end of things, though, and are surprised to see Martians so accepting of the decline of their civilization and planet. These seem more like cultural rather than deep inherent psychological differences; otherwise they are quite similar.

The discovery of other intelligent species, for instance have almost no effect on human society and european colonists treat the new planets as new places to explore, trade with and colonize and martians and lizard men as just new form of natives. Player characters are supposed to generally embody Victorian society and values, the players, of course, disagree with much of these. The in-game society is justifiably old-fashioned since it is actually set in an alternative past.

Space 1889 (Tabletop Game) / int_3bce9346	comment	Ragnarök Proofing: When the Ancient Martians built the Canal system and the Cities it supported, they already knew their world was declining. Hence, the cities were designing to be rather self-sustaining- Martian sewage is converted by bacteria deep under the city into gas which produce gas for lighting and heating, the buildings were made to be incredibly sturdy and the Canals themselves leak-by design- into the surrounding countryside, which creates a water table to support agriculture all along the canals. Some of the pumping stations have failed, although the stations have been built to many different designs, so although some complex systems are irreparable, other, very hardy and simple pumps look like they will continue to work for the foreseeable future. In any case, Mars is very short on raw materials- there is little metal or fuel on Mars, except for renewable resources like trees and the only arable land exists in bands around the canals which vary in width from 10 to 50 miles. Mars has stagnated, and seems unable to pick itself back up.

Space 1889 (Tabletop Game) / int_57b80b45	comment	Fantastic Racism: Given that this is the late 19th century there is no shortage of perfectly regular human-on-human racism -though this is not emphasized in the adventures. There is not Canal Martian on Canal Martian racism because they have had easy long distance travel and even a global society for millenia so geographical features have disappeared; so no races and no such racism (Canal Martians do not necessarily get along, but that is not because of race or racism). Humans and Canal Martians generally do not get along. Humans generally think that Canal Martians have a dignified look and gait, but they are small-minded, staid, conservative, overly traditional, wrong-headed, organized in opressive, parochial, despotic and corrupt societies, devoted to absurd and morbid religions and incapable of progress or self-improvement. The book hints that humans also think that behaviour at many canal martian courts are "scandalous" but does not elaborate. Given that late 19th century human society is prone to thinking in terms of races, these differences are often considered racial rather than cultural (ignoring the fact that Canal Martians obviously were very different and quite prosperous and much more advanced than the humans millenia ago). Canal martians think the "red men" (caucasians look red to martian eyes) are small-eyed, undignified, disrespectful, short-sighted, terribly wasteful, pushy intruders who really should go home to their own planet. It does happen that martian cities explode in xenophobic, boxer-rebellion-like riots. Hill Martians have a more relaxed attitude and see humans pretty much like everything else in their world; another resource to be used or an enemy to be fought as the case might be. Humans tend to see Hill Martians as savages, noble or not. Canal Martians just look down on Hill Martians as primitives. Everybody else thinks, correctly, that High Martians are violent, hateful, nasty, brutish, barbarous, feral, primitive and filthy.

These rules also have similarities with other GDW role-playing games, such as a system for NPC motivation, even if Space 1889 uses two dices instead of a deck of cards.

Space 1889 (Tabletop Game) / int_5d4359fe	comment	No Blood for Phlebotinum: liftwood is by far the most important resource on Mars, giving air supremacy to the party that can deny it to his opponent. It is by far the most important reason humans are on Mars and also a driving force behind the intra-Martian conflicts. This is somewhat subverted in that no state can really directly control this resource since it grows on high mountains controlled by the bestial High Martians. The main book also states that the Bhutan spice is controlled by Boreo-Syrtian league that trades exclusively with the British. Maintaining this monopoly is an important aim for the British, apparently even making the normally very anti-slavery British of late 19th century overlook the fact that it is exclusively grown by slaves.

Mars is a vast desert, and life only exists around the canals that the Martians built hundreds of thousands of years ago. The pump stations and power stations which enable their culture to exist were built for extreme long-use, but the more complex systems have failed, and some canals have disappeared as the water which filled them dried up. Martian cities are enormous and filled with gigantic skyscrapers, but the smaller populations who now inhabit them only live on the first few floors in the towers closest to the canals- the cities are too big and too tall to transverse by foot, but there are rumours of unexplored rooms with ancient Martian devices....

In the adventures, all these groups are just destructive terrorists though. The reasonably democratic government of Shaptash is the only player character antagonist that is sometimes described as somewhat sympathetic. In the adventure Steppelords of Mars, though, they are just enemy cavalry, bent on genocide against the nomads.

There is a short text in the main book however that says: “The High Martians Believed that Peel, with his pale complexion and unusual physique, was part Martian and welcomed him in their society.” Implying that at least the bestial High Martian imagine that such a crossbreed is possible. Anyway, there are alien subspecies; canal and hill Martians have not only cultural but also physical differences. They are also related to the High Martians and have lost the ability to fly relatively recently. In the book “A prince of Mars” the protagonist notice what seem to be a Canal Martian/High Martian crossbreed. If that hybrid is fertile, they are the same species.

Europeans use their superior technology just as effectively or even more effectively against Martians as against, say black Africans. Martian terrain does not lend itself to effective guerilla warfare nor do the Europeans have much trouble with Martian diseases the way they are subject to tropical diseases on Earth. It is the cost of transport to Mars and the lack of resources needed for European-style warfare (particularly coal or some other burnable fuel for the steam engines and metal for casings) that is slowing European conquest and colonization.

The books describe the time period quite correctly and certainly do not deny that the Victorians looked down on uneducated workers, people of other cultures and races and treated respectable women like second class citizens in need of guidance and protection and women they choose not to respect downright terribly. (There are, for instance, maximum social status rules for certain types of people, such as black Americans.) These aspects of Victorian society are downplayed in the adventures though and in illustrations aristocrats, workers and women seem to be in the same adventuring party, even if the men often seem to make an effort to put the women out of harm's way. The books give some historical examples of female adventurers in the era and imply that players wanting to play female characters could play such a rare person, a version of Lady of Adventure. All or almost all illustrations seem to imply that the player characters are white humans though.

It is not only the fictional Martian left-over technology from long ago but plenty of things that were a mystery to historical Victorians but we now know the workings of. For instance, the sun seems to send out a lot of energy from nowhere, much more than any known type of fuel could possibly sustain for more very long, leading some people to believe the solar system cannot be more than a few thousands year old. You seem to inherit traits from your parents, but having no idea of DNA, the mechanism for this is a mystery to Victorians, who sometimes think it is somehow literally “in the blood” or “with the mother’s milk” (but that makes it hard to explain how plants can inherit traits).

Space 1889 (Tabletop Game) / int_9c45b5a2	comment	What Measure Is a Non-Human?: In science fiction in general, first contact with another intelligent species is a really big deal giving rise to important questions about the nature of humanity. A lot less so in Space 1889. The colonial powers have treated Mars as another area to trade with and colonize and Martians as another type of native. Humans consider the human-like Canal and Hill Martians to have value near or just like a human. By trying to convert them to Christianity, for instance, they indirectly admit that Martians have souls and need salvation. This reaction is actually perfectly logical. To the average fairly racist late Victorian European mind it is a small concession to admit that someoone has a soul and a value near human. There are, after all, plenty of next-to-worthless humans (in their racist minds). Recognizing Martians as equal to white Europeans would be a completely different matter.

Historically, in 1895 he would trick Oscar Wilde into suing him—which ended up sending Oscar Wilde to prison. Historically, Alfred didn't meet Oscar Wilde until 1891 and Canal Priests of Mars is presumably set in 1889, so this is slightly ahistorical.

However, the things absent are more noticeable: no faster than light, no jump portal, no psychic powers, no singularity, no federation humans are nationally divided, no proud warrior race (though Hill Martians have some element of this but probably not more than any realistically depicted nomadic people), robots are few and not human like, no space marines, no space battles and not even a really big war in the sky. Space 1889 is and is intended to be different from the standard science fiction setting.

Space 1889 (Tabletop Game) / int_a7544a0f	comment	Beneath the Earth: Luna's surface is barren and lifeless, but a large canyon on its far side gives access to an inhabited inner world. After passing through a series of flooded caverns, an explorer reaches a continent-sized cavern mostly filled with water except for a number of large dry shelves and islands projecting from its sides. These are home to large fungal forests and to the city-states of the Moon Men, who descend from survivors of Vulcan, the long-destroyed fifth planet, that sought refuge inside Luna's depths and have now long forgotten their origins or the nature of the external world. The World Beneath the World is a complex system of caverns and tunnels running beneath the global jungles of Venus. It's formed from the constant growth of planet's vegetation burying older layers of the jungles and swamps beneath newer growth and rotting humus, forming a spongelike system of subterranean cavities supported by the petrified remains of ancient trees. This underworld is home to a complex ecology supported by the constant percolation of organic materials form above, mostly consisting of oversized arthropods, tangled fungal growths and sundry bioluminescent organisms. It's also home to the Gri, eyeless, albino relatives of the Venusian Lizard Folk who have been eking out an existence in the caves for generations and have only sparse contact with their surface relatives and the human colonists. The World Beneath the World does not form a single world-spanning network; most of it consists of solitary caverns and small cave systems, and although complexes as large as Australia exist these are not extremely common. However, some speculate that even deeper caves exist and connect the shallower cave systems to form a titanic underworld, chiefly due to the uniform nature of the various cave systems' fauna.

That is, unless you are one of those who think that the suffix "-punk" requires the protagonists and the story to be disillusioned and somewhat anti-establishment -like the real punk culture or like the vast majority of the cyberpunk stories. Space 1889 will not fit such a definition. The adventures to Space 1889 generally expect the heroes to stand up for queen and country and for Victorian values against agents from foreign countries, native rebellions, mad scientists, mad cultists and Fenian or Anarchist terrorists.

Even the early attempts at flight that historically looked like this are unlikely to occur in Space 1889 since liftwood has allowed practical flying ships.

The game is set in the late 19th century, one of the historical epoques of the greatest cultural gender differences. Women are expected to be domestic, supportive, and sensitive; men are expected to be professionally competent, brave, and physically tough. People generally try to live up to what is expected of them and if you try to do otherwise you meet resistance and possibly downright hostility. One hindrance is that it will be hard for a man or woman to get training and practice in skills that are considered clearly outside their gender role. This is downplayed in the game and no rules prevent any gender from getting any skill once play has started. Nor are there any gender modifications to stats or so.

By 1889 it has been demonstrated that brutal, authoritarian rule is not the only alternative to chaos. By 1889 there are plenty of budding democracies (though few have universal suffrage for women or men and sometimes more votes for rich people and often government is appointed by the king not the elected parlament)who have tested whether "any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure...". In Shaptash, Martians are giving this democracy thing a try. On Earth anarchists believed that if liberated from the oppressive structure of society people will naturally do good and act for the best of all humanity.

A precursor society discovered a medical treatment that gave them something very close to complete immortality. As long as they are in a place that can sustain life they live, regenerating any injuries and suspended animation when the necessities for life is abscent and regeneration from suspended animation to regular form as soon as the necessities for life is present again. Only complete destruction of the body can kill them irrevocably. Paradoxically this made them terrified of and obsessed with death. A mortal fears sickness, an immortal fears the enthropy death of the universe. They also lacked memories to handle vast amount of time. Paradoxically immortality drew them to suicide by completely destroying their bodies. The only being capable of psychologically handling immortality is one person who is whimsy and forgetful to the point of being hopelessly insane.

The few colonists on Mercury are beginning to keep them as pets and work animals.

Space 1889 (Tabletop Game) / int_f7a31863	comment	The Roleplayer: The game's intended audience is people who like to play an adventure type story while playing a Victorian character. The very simple rules do not leave much room for min-maxing or munchkining. A munchkin player with a repeating rifle and a good marksmanship skill could kill the technologically inferior enemies easily, but once the enemy is in range there is very little that will protect him from enemy musketballs and arrows (no dodge skill, no camouflage, no bullet stopping armor unless we are talking about close combat). On the other hand, the detailed background put much emphasis on understanding Victorian society and mindset.

All other European ideas leave Canal Martians unimpressed. This extends to technology—human military technology is pretty much the only human thing the Canal Martians want. Humans are certainly unimpressed by the current Canal Martians, but these generally do not try to spread their beliefs to humans (except their belief that humans should go home, and that is not working).

Space 1889 (Tabletop Game) / int_ffad4e9f	comment	Shown Their Work: Mostly averted. Frank Chadwick is obviously knowledgeable about late Victorian age but is a little bit too professional to feel the need to flaunt it. He sticks to talking about such things that are relevant or at least can serve as inspiration for role-playing in the Victorian age. Also he is not fussy about the exact chronology of late 19th century; steam turbines for ships is mentioned (didn't exist in 1889), Marquess of Queensbury tries to keep his son away from Oscar Wilde (they didn't meet until 1891), Zeppelins fly over Venus (first Zeppelin was in 1900), carbide lamps to be worn on hats and helmets are on the equipment list (wasn't invented until 1892). It's a game about alternate history, after all. In Soldier's Companion, he gets a lot more exact and accurate, claiming that all units raised on Earth and all biographies of British commanders are historically accurate as far as he has been able to ascertain—with the obvious exception that they historically never left earth.
