As a -f PP, keep in mind you still want relatively strong mineral settings.
10/3/15 or so should suffice, however.
And DO NOT forget you still need a warfleet.
Bombers are also important; packets are NOT cost-effective to kill a world on their own.
Of course, you can have bombers of nothing but LBU in order to reduce defenses+facts+mines before smacking with a packet to kill people. Especially as a -f who doesn't want the factories that much...
Keep in mind the minerals that affect each terra for your habs; Grav-immune will be wise, and you want rad and temp both shifted at least a bit, as a -f, since you'll have germ and bora to terra with.
Also, do *not* underestimate the power of using packet scanning.
It's entirely based on the speed of the packet, and not the size.
So if you fling a minimal-size packet at the max warp, you can get some very nice scanning for quite a ways, and it'll be sustained faster than your scouts can go.
But don't neglect your scouts, either.
As for LRTs, NAS is one you may or may not want. If it doesn't cost, or at least not much, you should probably take it; NAS gives marginal penalties, and marginal points, for a PP. But the benifits can pay off so much.
