I've been lurking here for a while (I finally found my people!) and was wondering if I could pick your brains some.
What would it take to have a few good years of fleets of Rigid Dirigibles capable of carrying on an air war with a PoD after the ACW. I assume that heavy-than-air fighters would quickly render the airships obsolete since they are so much faster and more maneuverable, so it seems that airship development needs to be accelerated and come to maturity before heavier-than-air flight does.
Big bonus points if we can have air fleets intersect with New Imperialism in some way.
