Don't bring naval vessels when invading a desert world.

Ok, I was being a bit silly trying that, :D but my maritime naval forces stayed up in the troopship as it should. I have yet to invade a water world, so my question is will tanks stay up in the troopship when invading a water world? Anyone know?

Tanks cannot be used on a water world.

If it were an icebreaker ... otherwise think Titanic

I'd say it's not normal. Boats need water rather than ice and the combination of water and ice can rip a hull open. You cannot put a ship on a solid block of ice and expect it to move because the screw must be in water afcourse.

As for icebreakers, i think they only work where ice is rather shallow. The ice on an ice world is likely vastly thicker than ice you'd find on earth where icebreakers might move. The icebreaker would not find water under the ice i think to move trough.

They can be brought there, but they will not participate in combat.
