Gnomish sidewheeler

Gnomish sidewheeler Gnomish sidewheelers were spelljamming ships built by gnomes out of collected materials from various sources and assorted gnomish inventions.

Description
Each sidewheeler was unique in design. Gnomes put their own individuality and practicality in their construction and repair, adding and salvaging new parts as needed, so over time a sidewheeler also gradually changed its appearance. The spelljamming helms on these ships were usually grandiose constructions, that the crew also tinkered with constantly.

Because of their unstable construction, sidewheelers were usually ill-suited for landing on the ground or to stay afloat on water. Since the chance of accident was high, sidewheeler crews either never landed or sometimes prepared to brace the ship together with improvised material. In other cases, they simply allowed the ship to crash and then rebuilt another one from the wreckage.

Sidewheelers were most commonly used by gnomes for exploration and transport. Less commonly, a ship might be loaded with large amounts of weaponry.
