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.

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

Dragging this back to the particular question I asked, let me ask it
again in a slightly different way.

Setting aside all the myriad different opinions about what future
warfare may REALLY be like, what do folks WANT from the game?
We sell infantry (from militia to Heavy Power Armour) and tanks (from
tracked to Hi-Tech Grav). What we're writing is a game that allows
people to play with the toys they buy from us. So, it is a given that
the game will be about infantry and tanks, of varying tech levels. If
that means it is more about Science FICTION than about projections of
probable military technology, so be it.

I am assuming that in order to get a "balanced" game, the forces
deployed will get smaller as the tech level increases; so to address
the specific question I asked, do folks WANT the small high-tech
infantry force to be able to shoot and kill enemy infantry at twice
or three times the range that lower-tech troops can, or do you just
want their fire to be more effective but at the same sort of ranges
throughout?
