Its some couple hundred years before honor, and its what got me into the series honestly, I really do suggest giving it a read (or if you have audibles, a listen).<br/><br/>And Oh yes, its largely forgotten.. But 40k was Totally satire to start with, not just political, but in tons of ways at the setting and so forth. BUt now you have fanboys who take it WAY to seriously and GW taking it to seriously as well, and its lost some of that original fun..<br/><br/>Deadlands steampunk gave things like steampowered wagons, and a couple other minor things. And a few weird things.. The big thing is Ghostrock, which burns like.. 10 times hotter then coal and 10 times longer, which makes boilers much more effective... though when burned makes a weird noise like someone screaming while on fire... But<div class="spoiler_container"><div class="spoiler_header" onclick="hideSecond (this);" role="button">No Other weirdness beyond that...</div><div class="spoiler_body">(aside from the fact that its essentially the souls damned to hell made into solid form, its fumes drives people Mythos cultist hatmaker levels of insane, and people got the idea from corrupt spirits whispering insane science idea into their heads...</div></div><br/>So steampunk there wasnt an overly major thing. It advanced tech a bit further then would have been for like, 1867, but not so much it was completely out there.<br/><br/>And yeah. it had some interesting stuff, but just very quickly fell apart from half assed ideas.. The worst was a "steam punk motorcycle" this series takes place in like, the early 1800s. Its somehow able to reach 100 miles an hour, they are sitting directly on the boiler (cause that has to be The Most Comfortable place ever..) and can turn like a stunt moped. at that point my eyes rolled so hard the retinas disconnected.. Bad steampunk is way to common. Biggest example, the Will Smith Wild Wild West movie.. *shudders* just... ... just not steampunk. at all.. so bad..
