Default SE V ground combat

I like the new concept in SE V that during the space combat troops are only landed but the actual ground combat takes place only the next game turn.
Is it correct that you can therefore land all troops from several small troop transporters together on a enemy colony before the ground combat begins?
This would be very good and eliminates one problem you had in SE IV.

I did this just now, landed troops from 2 transports on the planet during combat, think all the troops were there the next turn

Plus you avoid the rapid take over of an entire system from two troop transports within a single round.

hey, you know how long it took us to perfect that technique in SE4? it wasnt easy to get the movement, fleet arangements, strategies, and order arrangements just-right.
