Concept is cool; but I think there's a limited amount of scenarios that can use that and still be interesting for all players.I agree it's tricky to balance. You only need one, maybe two pilots to deliver ordinance onto the target once lased and they have nothing to do until then. I suppose there could be lightly defended artillery somewhere that's a threat to the ground troops that they need to take out in the meantime.
The ground troops also need some enemies to fight through (or at least try and avoid) on the way to the lase position and ideally either need to protect and defend that position or have targets they can go and mop up after the planes have taken out the main threats, otherwise the mission is over for them once they reach the lase position and they're just waiting around for it to end. That's not a problem if the planes are already close and can strike quite quickly though.
