AIRSHIPS which are not exactly known to be the most rugged vessels ever created, even in Fantasy).
Sorry to come across as negative nancy and counter to good fun, but I take munitions and airframes seriously. Having handled munitions for the Air Force probably has a lot to do with that.
"Hello, Eorzean. I am a Garlean in an airship. Surrender."
"Hello, Garlean. I am a Summoner, and this is Garuda-Egi, my buddy. How's your vessel for wind-shear?"
