I just picked up TI3 this weekend and it was our first time playing for my gaming group. Forgive me if this has already been discussed, but am I correct in assuming that if you have a system with more than one planet in it but only one space dock, you can only transfer ground forces and PDS units between the planets via a carrier or war sun? This question is assuming that you don't have any tech or cards that allow this redistribution.
This is correct. Without a transport, the ground units cannot move between the planets, even in the same system.
Additionally, is there any reason why you couldn't build build a space dock on all of the planets in a system, provided you have enough in your reserves?
Nope, and in fact that can sometimes be beneficial to help maximize your build capacity while reducing activations. You could even have all 3 of your docks in the same system if you have a triple-planet system (though in practice, I've really only ever seen the Hacan do that in their own home system, even with the expansions).
