Similarly, any invading force trying to march into the Shroud is going to run into some pretty spectacular issues. Ul'dah's really the only one without a real "defense" unless you count being surrounded by cliffs and desert, which would make it easy to see oncoming forces and potentially wear out those not used to the climate.
Politically it would be interesting. I could see the Syndicate using all of this turmoil to establish martial order over the Sultana since she'd likely be seeking a peaceable solution and war is always best for business.
Oh, I just realized: Isn't Cid's main research in Ul'dah? Can we count him as an asset? Because hooboy, that's a big one.

Garlond Ironworks? I thought he relocated his business to Revenant's Toll. His apprentices were there, last I saw them (haven't started 2.3 MSQ content yet).
Here's Risk: Eorzea for you in a nutshell: Limsa is Australia.
