Void Trains

The primary method of transport between the islands of the void are the void trains. These powerful steam-driven engines travel from island to island on impossible tracks through the void, metal islands of warmth and safety in a hostile reality.

Rules

Void trains are protected by void shields, and grant this protections to any carriages and cars connected to the engine.

As with any train, there are two parts to these vehicles - the engine and the carriages. Each engine can only pull a certain number of carriages at once, limiting how long each train can be.

The prices also include the void shield that protect the train as a whole.

Deceleration: Trains are big, and not easy to stop. They reduce their speed by 15ft per turn when stopping, meaning in an emergency they may not stop in time.
