just to add on the topic of planets and WPs and ships, in the later games the WPs are quite devastating if you have enemy fleets to also take care of. It appears that planetary napalm is sometimes the only way of quickly disposing of them - as a matter of fact i often load my BC+ sized ships with at least one large PN - 1200 damage per 2 turns is not to be ignored you know.
