Because the gravity on a gas giant has to be at least 10x that on the other worlds, they should be able to kick butt against their wimpier 1 standard G colonists/troops. 
Actually, Jupiter's surface gravity is about 2.5 G's due to its high density. Saturn, Neptune and Uranus, OTOH, are between 0.9 and 1.2 G's or about Earth normal. The high G worlds would be huge rock and ice planets not gas giants.
