[SciFi] I'm a general of an advanced alien race at war with humans. Despite our technology and experience advantage our laser and plasma rifles are about as strong as their bullets and we lose almost every major battle due to humans outsmarting us tactically. Why is this happening and what can I do?

Because you keep making the mistake of actually fighting them on the ground, where they can beat you with copious experience on their home planet. When Oda Nobunaga had to fight the Ikko Ikki monks in their impregnable fortresses during the Sengoku period, he threw countless soldiers at their walls for over a decade. In the end, he came to his senses and simply set the whole thing on fire.

Earth is the same. There is nothing an advanced civilization cannot simply scoop off its remains, so just saturate the atmosphere with several thousand nuclear weapons and wait a few years. Make sure to enforce a strict quarantine for ships coming back from Earth!
