In the first week of Zeppelin Armada's debut, it has been nominated by the council in the Doom Awards, and has received seven 'mentionations' for doomworld's annual cacowards in its cacoward mentionation thread. Following these mentionations were comments attempting to clean the thread -- at least one of which jokingly suggesting a name change to the thread title to "You don't need to post DBP59 again;" A precedent set only by the viral and wildly popular myhouse.wad.

DBP59: Zeppelin Armada Is an 18-level mapset for limit removing source ports, containing maps surrounding a steampunk theme, and a compelling overarching storyline concerning a new protagonist, Dexter Horbuckle and his quest to locate his lost wife, a time-traveller lost in the undertow of manipulated space and time. The mapset also contains NPCs and optional sidequests along the way, in parallel with classic, traditional, demon-slaying mayhem. Downloads for DBP59: Zeppelin Armada can be found in the project thread DBP59: Zeppelin Armada Project threadA longplay by Optimus can be seen here:

It's really a fantastic map set. The storytelling and side quests are new and innovative, and if I am not mistaken this dialog effect is a new technique and would give 40oz the naming rights. Although no matter what, if too much time elapses, it may simply become known as "the DBP59 trick." :-P

Aside the opinion of some about Doomer Boards, this is in fact a stellar job and deserves recognition among the community.
Although I cannot care less about awards, it would be a shame that this one doesn't get a Cacoward.

Having played some of this mapset, yeah this absolutely deserves at least a mention on the Cacoawards. Always nice to see a new DBP pop up, and If this is what bi-monthly releases lead to, then I'll happily wait a bit longer. Great work.
