This triggers my fight or flight response. This piece really suits the picture you painted with your concept.

Explain your hypothetical game concept & how you interpreted the theme!
March 5, 1939, somewhere over the Atlantic. Hundreds of giant machines of war made of wood, brass, rope and cloth hover between the shimmering water and the cloudless sky. A clear line is drawn, delineating the airships to the east and the west. Everything goes quiet for a second, only the waves below breaking the silence; then suddenly, the sound cannon fire and turret shells ringing out from all corners. Splintered wood, torn cloth and pierced brass tubing appear from clouds of smoke, falling and disappearing into the depths of the Atlantic to never be seen again. War has begun...
This is a track I made for the OST Minigame Jam 2 composing competition. I envision it to be the main title theme for a RTS game about Steampunk zeppelins and airships fighting over the Atlantic.
What genre is your soundtrack?
Orchestral Rock
What was your ensemble?
Horns in F, Violins 1, Cellos, Drumset, Violins 2, Tenor Trombones
Anything else you'd like to add?
I might have misunderstood the brief but I have used the ensemble version of the orchestral instruments rather than soloists. Also, I went slightly over-budget but adding in the Tenor Trombones and by using the Violins 1 twice (Tremolo and Spiccato) at the same time.
