I fully understand that Eberron is not an Industrial Revolution parallel however many of the elements of Steamboy gripped me the same way Eberron did. I am a mechanical tech enthusiast at heart just to lay my bias on that table as it were. Many of the sequences were non-stop action sequences which traveled through the world not just remaining in one environment. The Steam-powered contraptions could easily have been powered by bound elementals instead of steam engines. The most amazing item by far, the mysterious Steam Ball, is precisely how I think an Eldrich Machine should be presented. It was rare, immensely powerful, and wanted by just about every organization that knew about it.
