So I decided to join a Rp with Modern tech and magic, My character (The BBEG) Sent some aircraft to deal with them, Fair enough. ANd they decide they use magic to the point where Nothing can touch them, normally If I owned the Rp I would talk with them. But it's THE GM WHO IS POWERGAMING, Any ideas on what I should do? I agree that Hypersonic jets are a little overkill, though they can be taken down. They were not mentioned to be hypersonic, but when the powergame started I would have to counter them. So now these kids are Literally dodging and deflecting HYPERSONIC MISSILES!!! For those of you don't know, these missiles travel several times the speed of sound, Meaning they would be killed Mid-Sentence, while they would survive the hits (So it's fair) I think it's a little over the top for them to dodge that many rockets.

Ah, I have a lot of experience with this.
My approach to this is to stop role playing and discuss this with them. Make sure you thoroughly explain if(and why) you've lost interest in as much detail as you possibly could. Explain to them how they're being way too powerful and that it's making it unenjoyable and unfair.
Try to include as much detail as you can as it will help these people understand what they're doing and what effect it's having.
However, if they continue to do this and ignore your explanation (which happens to me more often than not) then simply just leave. It's not worth trying to explain it to them or getting into an argument if they won't listen.
