I've started playing Cravers so I am doing a lot more invading than I was used to.

1) When I fight I often find I am about to win but then he conscripts another pop so there are still people left and the fight drags into another round. Is the only way to prevent that to land with enough troops that I take it all in a single round (not giving him time to draft?) Almost every planet I take ends up with 0 pop by the end of the fight.

2) Once I take a planet and choose to acquire it, all my troops can be taken off and moved somewhere else and the ownership will still transfer over at the same rate? (seems to me it would be better if a big army relative to the pop could subdue it more quickly, and if without a minimum sized occupying force the planet ownership would not change).

3) Is there a risk of actual mutiny when planets are "mutinous"? Because I have had several and none have actually risen up against me.

4) Where can I control picking up and putting down my troops? If my ships are empty and orbit one of my own worlds they pick up troops, and if I invade they drop them... but what if I am going into a risky combat and don't want troops on my ships? What if I want to only half-fill my ships and leave a garrison on the world below when I leave?
