You both forget two important factors in warfare: reconnaissance and morale.

Reconnaissance is no problem for any future force (I don't want to talk about star wars specifically because I don't know much about it) since it can easily scout out Mordor with flyers or radar systems. But it is a problem in the matter of the ring. When the clone army lands on ME, they just see some primitive nations. They know nothing about the ring and even if they find out, they have to search the ring bearer. They will have a harder time finding it because they don't have Sauron's powers to sense the ring.

Morale is especially important when orcs try to fight clone troops. As soon as the clone army opens fire, the orcs will be confronted with lasers that shine as bright as the sun and orcs hate light. Also when they see how many orcs die from the fire, they will instantly give up any fighting.
