Thats when you get into the orders buttons on the bottom right.
There's a target selected weapons one which opens a window to choose which weapons you want to fire at the chosen target.

that's why I select Strategic battles. I don't really care to get into all that detail.

Right now, I'm in the habit of dropping troops down into other planets. Is it a good idea to just kill the entire population and before assaulting it?

If you annihilate a planet's population prior to landing your troops, there won't be a colony left to land troops to!

Except with biological weapons...

What do you mean? I shot at a colony a few times to reduce the population, it went horribly wrong cuz all of them died before I could stop my ships but I invaded anyway and I got the colony with the facilities intact(more or less) without having to fight the stupid militia.

Is there a way to target certain things on the planet?
