Default Re: Does invading planets work in strategic combat?

In your empire options under strategies you can set capture planet strategy to not target planets. This will probably mean that you will not attack the weapons platforms however so its not always a good idea. It may however help with being able to fight the ships and orbital defences without destroying the planet.

Yes you can invade planets with troops in strategic combat. But you have to set your fleet strategy to "capture planet" instead of "optimal firing range" or other strategies.
Your attack ships should go in and pound the planets defenses, then when its safe enough, your troop carriers will come in and attack with troops and the ground combat screen should show up.
