Kim, if there are troops and weapon platforms on a planet, the troops will always be bombarded before the platforms (assuming unmodded game). The unit with the least hit points (including shields) is destroyed first. Troops have fewer than WPs.

Hmm, that's very interesting. Since all my data is empirical (gleaned from games) I was unaware of this. Not trying to be snotty here, but how do you know this to be true? Since this occurs only in simul games where you never see the enemy troops, how did you find out?

Slick, what you replied is bang on. No arguments here except I have little trouble capturing planets. As you suggested you just need the right strategies.
