The fleet won't attack and the troop ship won't drop troops. The orders stay in the order queue and the same will happen on following turns. Did you try this in turn based or simultaneous?

<font size="2" face="Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif">Well, Rags, you gonna tell me what happened or you gonna keep me in suspense. You're killing me here. I sure would like to find a trick for doing this in simultaneous games.

Then again, it might not be possible...

You can't capture a planet with no pop in simultaneous turns. This is a bug we reported to Malfador a while back but the fix didn't make it in the Last patch.

No, I just got busy Last night and wasn't able to run the tests. But good thing I didn't cause it would've been waste of my time. http://forum.shrapnelgames.com/images/icons/icon10.gif

If you build facilities i e mineral mines, research centers and then depopulate the planet. Will it still produce resources?

If so, that would be a BIG bug!!
