I think you also need to give your carriers the class of Troop Ship for the Capture Planet strategy to work. Without troops, they behave as normal carriers.
All you need to do is assign the strategy Capture Planet or Drop troops or whatever it is. No need to assign class Troop Ship. All that the class does is assign the Capture Planet strategy to the ship design by default.

I use three types of troops, plus the WobblyBob class.

1) A shielded class that is expensive to build, but soaks up lots of damage. Load it into the Troop Transport First.

2) The T3 the three gun design mentioned. Put them on the TT second.

3) ECM/ECCM troops. Load one of these Last in any attack group. It will be effective for the whole stack.

Plus the troop transports use First in, First shot at when landing troops. Your ECN guy will then get killed Last while the soakers will take damage first. This is a compilation of things I have learned. It seems to work, but I have not done a lot of detailed testing.

Yes, that works, Parasite.
