Unit Design

err last I checked planet rating was relevant on offense but not on defense so the morganites running FM would be just as good as the gaians running green

hmm.. i thought its difference in the planet ratings of attacker and defender that counts, but more likely than not i am wrong here.

As for armouring planes - while armour also helps against artillery, it does not matter any either. Do what flubber said - put it there only if its free, and you do not plan on upgrading plane later.

Once I considered using armoured planes as defensive units (1-best-10), but its not very cost effective - you will be better off defending if you attack enemies as they advance.
