Eyeing the success of Mekkanical Industries's revolutionary airship designed by Sir Isaac Newton, Schwarzkopf Industries knew they had to develop something equally fantastic.
So when the renowned inventor Herr Gerstlauer concieved of the Dampfapparat (Steam Machine), Schwarzkopf Ind quickly agreed to fund his project.
A flurry of papers were signed and Herr Gerstlauer set up shop in The Black City, Schwarzberg.
There he created an absolute money maker.
Gerstlauers Dampfapparat attracted tourists from all over Europe, and Schwarzkopf Industries, together with Gerstlauer Elektro would go on to challenge the extremely profitable Mekkanical Industries in a battle of coin.
