Fun fact: lightning attacks are armor-negating. In other words, that high-prot Ulm black steel is useless. Since it's a physical attack and not a matter of will, MR is useless as well.

Ulm, for its part, can use Mechanical Men to form an unbreakable, elemental-proof front line, or use the IDs, or even push for blood and use hammers/smiths to get Soul Contracts, but this would take some serious empowerment on the Smiths.
