Welp—after naïvely beating around this bush in my worldbuilding for a good while now, I’m finally finding myself pricked by its thorns—and am consequently feeling a bit chuffed at apparently having to choose between:

  • Dragons (et cetera) that can be even mildly threatened by (warbands’ worth of) sufficiently enchanted steel…and thus absolutely obliterated by a single magitek-facilitated fighter jet

  • Dragons (et cetera) that can fly on even footing with (fleets of) magitek-facilitated fighter jets…and would thus need to be fought with said fighter jets or even heavier ordinances, as opposed to infantries of plucky protagonists armed with human-scale mechsuits at most

Lest I ditch the notion of fighter jets entirely—along with assault rifles and ATVs and functioning faux-internet, because any folks with opposable thumbs would definitely have developed ways to deal with the actively antagonistic airborne apex predators (and with each other as a bonus) by the time they stumbled upon any of that other stuff…which would summarily rewind my setting’s sociopolitics back to a roughly medieval or Renaissance-era status quo, of which the logistical hurdles and inconvenient mundanities I specifically wanted to avoid constantly and consciously accounting for in my roleplay.

Maybe I should just keep looking for/cooking up some kind of sitcom TTRPG after all…
