Planetary Defence not Working?

I my recent game (Dark Avatar beta 2) I was forced to build a couple of planetary defence buildings to keep my planets, the problem was that it diden't seem to give me any bonuses at all when the enemy invaded my planets.

Maybe I don't quit understand how they should work, but aren't they supposed to give me a bonus to soldiering during an enemy invasion of my planet? And shouldn’t I be able to see that bonus added to my Total Soldiering bonus in the ground battle screen? And shouldn’t I be able to see my planetary Defence bonus in the Planet Detail screen?

Best Regards and Merry Christmas

Defence usually sucks for defending worlds without ships in orbit. You could have 10:1 tech advantage and +30% soldering and still lose. These seem to be almost exclusively offensive based. This bugs me as well as I'd rather minimize military expenditure/maintenance and focus on tech and starbase construction.
