Orbital bombardment

Orbital bombardment is a military strategy in which a starship or space-based machine bombards a planet heavily. It can completely devastate the surface or be made more precise, targeting individual cities or bases.
==Usage==
The most effective means of doing this is to place several capital ships in orbit around a target world (whether it be a specific area or the entire planet) and command them to fire. Although such an act is often imprecise and causes extreme collateral damage, some gunnery crews are skilled enough to be accurate. Orbital bombardment has been used many times in galactic history.
