While it is possible for these two concepts to co-exist or even merge with one another in the case of steampunk-style civilizations, the [[nation:ndc|]], and the like.

Anti-magic and magic acting as a kind of anti-tech EMP should only exist and be used for reasons of RP, and not as a means of cheesing or meta in RP between nations or player characters.
