B MODULES

• The Motherlode Rover (B8, p20) - Created by the Gnome Robern "The Stubborn" Sternslate - this ship is described as a seagoing vessel, but since its creator has never seen an ocean, he has been unable to test it. As a non-canonical suggestion, perhaps Sternslate added flying capabilities later in his career? Might help him find that Ocean at some point?
