capturing planets question

[Q]

ok, why do I have such trouble capturing more than 1 planet in the same sector. Normally one gets captured and the other gets glassed. What's the trick? I seem to recall it might having more than 1 troop transport. Is that ??

That is correct. You need at least as many transports as enemy colonies in the sector you attack. However if the ground combat is not won by your troops (be aware of mods that reduce the ground combat turns) more transports will drop their troops on the same planet. Then you might need much more than one transport per colony.
