If an enemy frieghter and/or colonizer ended the turn on the same planet that warships of mine ended on (and my ships werent quick enough to destroy them all in combat) can the remaining transports still invade and colonize even though i have combat ships in orbit?

Yes, only a base can prevent invasion. Any ground population prevent colonization.

Your enemy will have the opportunity to make a WP0 drop or colonization, those happen before the next battle.
Like LEit said a base would prevent a drop, though the base have to be there _this_ turn, building one happens again after the WP0 drop ...

Check the Stars! Order of Events.

...Another related point for newbies - the SB/OF/etc doesn't need to be armed to stop pop-drops... it just needs to be present.

I know it says that you can't drop troops because the orbital defences would shred your troops into pretty streamers before you reached the surface...

I think that by default, all starbase crewmen are armed with peashooters and catapults... oh, and specially designed space helmets for when they have to pop their heads out of the windows... Wink

Cool
