How does one attack planets with present bugs?

[javaslinger]

Given the present bombardment bugs causing certain planets to be nary invincible and certain weapons to be largely impotent against them...

What strategies are people using to get around this?

As I understand it, DUC's and even some planetary weapons are useless against planets... yet, we can't just let our opponents planets keep churning out fighting vessels and research points and minerals can we???

So are people entirely foregoing certain weapons types? Are DUC's entirely useless at the moment even in the early stages? Are we forced to rely soley on anti-proton beams?

Certainly some of this is covered in other threads, but I'd be interested in a concise discussion about what to do given where the game is presently...

Thanks,
