Theres an enemy planet with a lot of depots, average defense, and a shield generator. There are a few enemies about, repairing faster then they can be damaged. Your team consists of a medium group of semi-new players. What do you do?

Get in a transport ship, close jump planet, unload, get new ship/go to planet get more.
Rinse and repeat, now said depot planet is yers. Problem solved!

im pretty sure that planet only has 1 or 2 barracks, easy capture. Once you capture fight near the now allied depot planet. Or since you are ICC...
you can always blot out the sun with missles at long range...
or equip gauss and snipe...
or just snipe with rails...
or if you have them snipe with ion cannons...

2 or 3 man crew.
Get 1 dude as the infantry controller and have him sit in a safe location, F3 to the target planet.
Get the other dudes in tranny to cloak rush, or cloak jump the planet with full loads of INF set to raze. Drop them all and then suicide or SD.
Infantry controller dude will lead the dropped troops and raze tech, depots, dicos, and render it useless. Alternatively, they can choose to raze the domes and stuff that will cause the planet to revolt.

Yes you bomb with bread now. It has a 50% chance of making the planet revolt in your favor

If you're ICC then sit back and litter the place with missiles.
If you're K'luth then who you can either combine fire on one arc of the enemy and hull him before the depos can repair him or just send in wave after wave of transport to drop infantry on both the planet and the hostile ships.
If you're UGTO... well... lets all be serious here, this planet is going to be in the hands of UGTO isn't it? So... Sit back and watch?
