Cool! And just in case I havn't said it already, Thanks for all the help! (One more, how do I capture enimy planets?)

Research Construction, then Troops. Design some Troops and build them. Design a troop transport ship (give it the type of Troop Transport), and build it. Load up troops. Send it with a fleet to attack a planet. Move it next to the planet (in combat), and use the Drop Troops order.
