Default SEV Troops Stuck

Ok, I'm playing SEV a little more, just one more turn...

I have troops stuck on several planets in a perpetual standoff. I'm playing using the Auto combat button not simulatenous mode), and can't land fresh troops, or bombard, or nuke the planet. How can you break the stalemates?

Planet 1. My troops landed off of the battlefield. AI had many troops and fighters. Should have been a grand battle, but thay can't get to each other. I just see one of my troops on the ground mini map, but all of them planet list.

Planet 2. My troops won't take on the weapon platforms, due to low ammo or energy or chance of success I guess. I can't land replacements or give bonbardment support.

any suggestions?

I think you will be able to land more troops after the patch...

Correct. The v1.33 patch allows additional troop transports to drop new troops for the ground combat.

Probably related to the code that makes ships stop firing on invaded planets.

It would have been nice to be able to recover (transport) your troops from the planet. At least that way, you could re-invade. The Planet 1 problem may not be fixed by the patch. The new troops might also be placed outside of the battlefield.
