Sending in the troops?

from GalCiv2 Forums
When you send in the troops to take over a planet, it lists for each
side several factors that presumably affect the likely outcome:
soldiering and tech.

How roughly are these determined? Does soldiering relate to techs researched?

Techs researched is how many points all of your researched technologies are worth. Soldiering is a number that increases when you research planetary invasion and defense technologies - each planetary defense tech increases your ability by 10, the planetary invasion tactics (or at least the higher-end ones) increase the ability by 15, the Tir-Quan Training Center multiplies that number by 1.25, etc.

Actually, the Tir-Quan just adds 25, otherwise my soldiering would be 160 instead of 153... which it's not. But yeah, soldiering is just a stat, much like population growth or miniaturization.
