Subject: [GZG] A planetary assault as a wargames campaign
Given all the ideas floating around there seems to be some good ideas
for a
campaign of planetary assault in a Full Thrust or similar universe.
The GZG universe states that there were land battles between the Kravak
and
Humans.
I'd be interested as to the strategies both the attacker and the
defender
can take.
The attacker has the edge in technology (Elite assault units and all)
but
maybe not in numbers. The defenders have the advantage of local terrain
knowledge and support.
I'm not sure that heavy armour would be that common on either side, its
difficult for the attacker to transport and land and would be a very
expensive luxury for a colony, so light armoured vehicles or grave
effect
vehicles might be the order of the day.
What strategies are available to the defender other than insurgency
warfare?
If the defenders mass up and try to go out and engange the attackers in
an
open battle they risk and orbital strike or are just playing into the
attackers hands by fighting the war their way.
John
