Well, only having limited Star Grunt play..
     I would like to be able to deploy my high tech infantry force and
be 
able to take on a greater # of low tech enemies and have a good chance
of coming 
out on top.   I would like my High tech troops to be able to out
shoot/range 
effectively the lower tech enemies.

DOCAGREN

Just a Lurker here on the Digest, But maybe I have a good idea or 2..
    :-)
Or a few questions, that need answering
