You need to be more specific and provide details if you expect some kind of useful answers.

Yeah that tends to happen on Pirate worlds.  You start to land troops and suddenly they get blitzed with all the landskimmers and pirate stuff.  Pirates are pretty tough on the ground for me anyway (maybe because I don't make massive armies.

Vader can pwn an entire Pirate Army. The pirate vehicles have little armor and can be slashed apart or Force Crushed easily. Pirate Infantry fall easy victim to his blade and Force Push.

How rude of the pirates to not allow the landing to go unmolested. ;D Edited March 1, 2006 by Throxx

I have that problem with the Imps 2. Somehow, they decide that my landing zone is the perfect place for their artillery to pratice shelling  ;D

[Grand Admiral Thrawn 889]

the rebels do that to me with the MObile Artillery but that just gets owned when i end up landing Vader and the Emperor.

yes really... it is truly a shame that your enemy would not want to give you a fighting chance to kill them... tsk tsk... is it too much to ask? maybe it is.... who knows

For pirates there seem to be pretty easy counters.  Rebels can land speeders that make quick work of the pirates given their lack of AA.  Imperials apparently can counter with Vader.  Just try to arrange it so that those are the first units to land (having mostly speeders for example?).
