The interesting thing, however, is that deployment points never go away - when a unit is destroyed, the points used to create it trickle back to the player, who can then spend them on new units. So, if your opponent's air support is chewing up your infantry, you can use the points you get back from the destroyed soldiers to build some AA units and try to even the odds. It also means that even if your entire army is nuked into oblivion, you'll still be able, over time, to build yourself back up. And what's more, your enemy has just blown his wad of points on a very expensive nuke and is now only lightly defended. Hmmm... like we said, interesting.
