Reprint of Goblin Dirigible, because it fits this world's idea of how artifact creatures want to function.

But with a more flavourful type given the set has several such.

Changed type from Zeppelin to the slightly more generic Ship.

Although ship isn't an existing type anyway, and zeppelin is much more awesome...

(Existing ship cards tend to be apparently -- pirates! Although I admit "artifact creature -- goblin pirate rigger zeppelin construct" would be too ridiculous :))

How about "Aircraft"?

Hmm, thing about "Aircraft" is it'd include Thopter (and probably Floating Fortress) as well. Maybe I will go with Zeppelin after all, then.

I wonder if it'd be odd having both this and Hydrogen Blimp in the same set at the same rarity.

Actually, this looks rather sad next to Lumengrid Gargoyle now. I guess this card won't be in my set.

Nah the flavour of this is great. Given Lumengrid Gargoyle you could almost argue for this being a common - almost

Hmm. I do still have slot CA16 open for a common large artifact creature, and I'm all for increasing the number of flying artifact creatures wherever possible. So maybe I'll do that.

I'm imagining the Colossus of Sardia fell down, and it's head floated away, the piloting goblins laughing. (Name that film)
