So its a good example of what would happen if a world like Pandora and its
senient "tree" existed and it decided to take out the enemy before they come
back and take them out?
True about ways and means, but how to get off the planets surface?
Or the World sends back spores hidden on the ship that goes back at the end or
during a recon? Much like how sea life from one harbor, attachs itself to a
ship and then the algae or like local to Chile sea life, is now in the harbor
in New York? And spreading around the planet via ocean going ships?
Alternate the Tree/World could build a "world" ship and invade that way but ...

Steve Jackson Games also produced a decent supplement based on
Gerrold's fiction - GURPS Chtorr. As with most GURPS stuff, pretty
solid effort with a lot of ideas applicable both to Star Frontiers as
well as Gamma World.

Check out the Chtorr by David Gerrold. It is an epic story of an
ecological invasion.

I imagined this as a way to send in an invasion force to a planet a
while ago. The invaders encase tree-seeds into small meteors, the outer
shells burn up in entry to the target planet's atmosphere, and the
tree-seeds land, with such force they burry themselves, and then in
about a year or so grow into full trees. Then their 'fruit' grow into
full-sized humanoid soldiers (organic technology- natural armor),
instant invasion foce, plus the tree can grow reinfocements.
