On top of which, using the spell disables the anti-infantry combat features so the vehicle requires supporting infantry or other units while it completes the firing operation. The Ascians are the ones who were supposed to be partially responsible for several of the mishaps of the ancient allagans so that doesn't exactly shine a lot of positive light on those guys.
    Infantry is expendable, and now the ascians get to sell them ANOTHER one =]

    Hahaha, business logic! (and going by the Allagans' Portal-style AI and training system on Azys Lla, infantry is definitely expendable to them...)

    My own observation re. Ultima is that it looks like an overpowered version of Summoner's "Deathflare" spell - which gives interesting implications to quite what our summoner powers are drawing on....

    (unless that gets covered in Stormblood. I'm not there yet.)
