"MOO3 shows us..."
I rest my case...attacking a solar system in Galactic Civ is much more realistic than in M003...yet another thing Gal Civ does better....
Why bother with all the nukes, fusion bombs, etc when you can just sling asteroids at your enemy? (somewhat like the bugs in Starship Troopers. They had a WAYYY more intelligent and efficient strategy than the 'mobile infantry' crap).
Or if you don't want to cause a global 'winter', just bring big round 'bowling balls' of high density material, like lead or something, slap a cheap fin guidance system on (with cameras for onboard control) and you can precisely take out major industrial and population centres with no danger to yourself.
Nostromo has already pointed out why the Martians are bothering to go through all the trouble of conquest vs extermination. The Martians need to replenish their livestock, and so they need to keep most of us alive to use, thus terror tactics and a ground based invasion to break the will to resist.
What's all this political crap everyone else is on about?
