(In that context, it makes the empire look like it's run by omnicidal maniacs.)
    Lol I dont think actual physics/science matter all that much in a fantasy setting. Thats why there's suspension of disbelief. Dalamud can hit, things go boom...like the meteor which wiped out the dinosaurs.

    Clarke's third law more or less states there is no difference between sufficiently advanced science and magic, so I would say physical laws can apply in a fantasy setting. Besides, we already know Dalamud is some kind of ancient technology from a dead civilization, and they've had stuff that could be scientifically explained as far back as the first game in the franchise. Again, it's speculation on my part, but I wouldn't be so quick to dismiss it. (that and I like the thought of the Empire being run by madmen willing to kill us all for ultimate power.)
