Default Re: Does invading planets work in strategic combat?

The few times I've assaulted defended planets in strategic mode, my fleet has fired, then stopped firing as the transports move in and take the place. Only a few times have they actually destroyed the colony. I stopped using Strategic after I lost an entire fleet to a single planet. Why? Because my stupid ships closed the range to take out the planet's defenses and were cut to pieces. Normally I would keep the direct-fire ships back and take out the WPs by missile dancing.
