i done one of those

Kind of

Jules Verne was steampunk before it had a name

aye

It deals with two spaceships crashing on April 13, 1885

One lands in Dakota Territory

The other Crashes in Georgia

our thoughts and prayers are with the people of alternate dimension's dakota and georgia

The one in Dakota lands on Sioux land

oh snap the natives!

and is like your traditional flying sauucer

this woulda bring the tribe on the war path

The one in Georgia is a sphere and grants all of the freed slaves powers according to their names

holy superpowers!

The four main characters are Hephaestus, Hestia, Artemis and Herecles

that's greek as hell 🙂

YEah

demi gods

But there are people with names like Ceasar and become great leaders

yeah who would think a drink would make a good emperor?

LOL

But not only Mythological names but heroiic names also

aye, i see you have a pretty unique synopsis here

So if a soldier was named Xerxes

The ship in Dakota helps the world develop technology to stop an invasion

and the Sioux all get abilities based on their names too

So this explains Nightwolf in Mortal Kombat

it all makes sense now

LOL

The crash prevents Licoln from being assassinated

i gather the whole scientific field gets on steroids too

like exponential growth and discoveries

pretty steampunk indeed

More like Coal powered lightning canons

and airships

Tesla would be intrigued

Yes unfornately he was a little kid

I looked it up

I'm sure this would only exacerbate his curiosity

time to make unsung heroes of the past, the heroes of the alternate story you're telling

Tesla would be 9
