That isn't my intent, nor did I say it was. I merely desire a small to moderately sized military group that has Magitech in their possession, not some large force loaded to the gills with army destroying artifacts, or even any hostile intent. They would be no more a threat to the global power balance than any other FC. There are several FCs out there that would be comparable to or even surpass my hypothetical group in terms of both numbers and raw power, so I don't see an issue.Â
That's good then. Remember an important rule about playing characters with special/rare powers: if the character concept requires other people to agree that their character is automatically weaker than yours, then it's not good RP, but going on a power trip. And same applies to FCs.
You're worried about stepping on other people's toes and keeping things plausible and within role, so your idea might work. Because intent is very important.
