Noooooo Blimps do not have frames, they maintain their shape by pressurizing the envelope. Dirigibles have rigid frames supporting their envelopes. And both of them are airships.
Just yesterday, I watched “Stardust” on TV, with a brave Robert DeNiro as a quite interesting pirate captain of a balloon ship.
Not that I assume copying, but it’s a very very weird coincidence :D
So…
About those gnomish flying machines…
The writing is particularly succinct in this one. And the humour is nicely subtle.
Ship to Blimp!? Yep, didn’t see that coming.
Great stuff, keep it coming!
technically its a flying ship…
blimps have metal holding the balloon in shape on the inside.

I pretty much made the face on the roll over text, then read it and laughed at how accurate your assessment of our response would be.
Oh… I guess they really were pirate
ghostswings.Yep, totally called that in the previous comments….
And now I have visions of Lowping and the Great Goblin Engineered Bomb dropping on Stormwind. Sigh, I miss Flintlocke.
Ooohhh, and as I was just looking it over..so THAT’S how Syr, Ban, and Frigg-Em-All got up to the Sky-Elves place. I get it….
That is one lumpy gasbag of a sail! Who filled it?
I would say it’s rather tightly inflated, the ropes tying it to the ship are rather firm though.

Well that’s one way to clean the bilge.
Air pirates led by a captain with the last name “Carnage.” Somebody was a fan of Disney’s “Tale Spin.”
I’m glad I wasn’t the only one who made that connection….
Seconded! or Thirded or something…
It’s a bird… it’s a plane… no, it’s an arrr ship! :P
You might also note someone is doing their best on the deck out there!
Flying pirate ships. Cool.
Oh ye doubters!
I have this really bad affliction. Some times I Pun….
I just realized, this is probably the only time in history that Sails-Man was considered a promotion.
You have to think about where the sails are on this ship to get the joke….I am so ashamed….
Good God! Not the Goonies!
…now to slow down, so the McNinjas can sneak aboard…
Yeah, I’m kind of amazed at the coincidence.
I thought I spotted Mongo…
If this is supposed to be completely mundane technology, those gasbags are awful small to be lifting that much.
