How fast can it move?
This fast.
When someone bangs on your door and tell you that you have FIVE minutes to get out, remember this video from Texas Parks and Wildlife!
Bastrop State Park -- what's left of it today. This fire is finally up to 45% under control.

Apparently there's only 100 acres left of Bastrop State Park that have not been touched by fire, although they've so far managed to save most of the CCC structures. That's over 6,000 acres lost.

Why Not Live Steampunk?

Live Steampunk for 1.75 million.
