I don't understand the difficulty discussed here. Against even homeworlds I never needed bigger than a Battle Cruiser (or was it a Dreadnought ?) with basics plus three phased shields V and the rest cargo bays. It holds 150 large troops equipped with shields 3, ecm, sensors, and a ground cannon 3. Possibly you are using some other weapons ? Somebody pointed out that other weapons do not work properly for troops. I would not know since I always considered GC3 to be most cost effective and cheap to research to boot.....
The problem for me was the fact that my race had a -50% ground combat modifier.
Also the design of my "Wobbly Bobs" was:
1 x Troop cockpit
2 x Ground Cannon 3 (15 damage each)
1 x Plasma Armor 3 (24 hitpoints)
For a total of 10Kt size, and 31 hitpoints.
