Since I'm heading to gamescom shortly, I decided to put out an early beta of Airships dev 9. You can access it by opting into the beta branch on Steam.
It doesn't have the complete set of features - and monsters - yet, and is a bit rough around the edges, but I'd really appreciate your feedback at this point, especially in terms of user interface and any crashes or weird monster behaviours.
Major additions:
- Monsters: Dragons, Giant Spiders, Sky Krakens
- Monster nests in conquest mode
- Modules: Dragonriders, Harpoon Guns and Dragonhide Armour
- Ability to create missions in-game. You can set up a combat between particular opponents, or let the player choose their own fleet. Missions can also use mods, and you can put missions into mods. (I'll do a whole post on the mission editor in a bit.)
- Performance improvements and bug fixes.
- More monsters
- Monster nests actively attacking empires

In the game, ships are viewed side-on, and their modules are operated by individual crew members. During combat, players give high-level commands to a small fleet, positioning their ships, ramming and boarding others. Ships and terrain are fully destructible: they can catch fire, explode, break apart, and fall. Players can also compete against one another in Internet and LAN matches.
The ships are highly detailed, teeming with sailors moving around at their individual tasks, like an ant farm or a cut-away drawing. The player's choices in ship layout are crucial, and an important part of the game is exploring the design space of different airships and their matching tactics.
