I thought about this some more, and I think it could work like this: Alliances will place coal and maybe water(you decide whether or not it's real water) into a furnace/boiler. The amount of each determines how much "fuel" is applied to that alliance's blimp/airship, which will be stationed in a corner of the field. Either "fuel " will inflate the balloon, or just charge a battery/capacitor on the blimp. During the endgame, the blimps will be launched(or can be launched prematurely if desired), and possibly remote controlled by human players. It is also possible that coal will be placed somewhere on the field, put onto the field by human players, carried by a train around the perimeter of the field which may be controlled by human players, or any combination of those.
