[Strategia_In_Ultima]

In the demo troops ARE weak. In the full version, you can build much larger troops with much stronger weapons. Then it's worthwhile. The overall opinion on this forum is that capturing is FAR more effective than glassing the planet. I'd say try it once, even if only in the simulator. Troops are simply better than planetary napalm (unless you mod the napalm bombs to do 1 damage).
