To me, (totally) loosing a war in Proportions is a pretty hard thing to do. I'm in turn 400 or something in a game aganist the AI and I'm still trying to take down a _neutral_ empire's homeworld. Apparently 35 ships with 8 point defense cannons V isn't enough to take down a planet with a bunch of missile weapon platforms. Maybe this new design with shield depleters will be more effective... Then again, I think the reason my fleet died was because they couldn't punch through the 4000 infantry on the planet. Oddly enough, the infantry were taking damage first, and providing a _lot_ of cushioning, considering their 100kt damage resistance for 1 kt of space.
AFAIK, the units take damage in the reverse order they have been constructed, ie Last build is killed first. It would make sense to build WP with weapons only first and then cover it with troops. Heroes cover cannons with their bodies and stuff...
