<<my posse have just beaten off an assault  team of combine troops, and now
have the leader as an enemy. any ideas on how to run this?? the combine know
what town they work from. do they get fresh troops each combat?? do they
destroy the town?? due to the might of the combine im preety unsure how to
run this, cos lets face it they could get reinforcements and just blow the
crap out of the town. i was toying with the idea of the leader just keeping
wot troops he has left and using them to get their revenge.>>

Make it a "saving face" situation for the guy. If he goes back for more
troops he will look weak so he will go after the posse or their town with
what men he still has, but if they are too good he may go back to the
combine for help. Should he go back the Combine could say that if he can't
get them with the reinforcement then don't return. If he still can't take
down the posse (and don't think I'm telling you to kill your posse just how
to justify this same villain coming up over and over again) with the
reinforcements then he may keep dogging them using bike gangs, thugs or just
as a sniper. That's how I would keep a villain going in a chronicle and not
letting the villain get a lot of power.
