With the Roto's, the core strength is a little different than you'd expect. Each core determines where on the hook scale it should go, then the coverstocks they throw on there determine on what sub-part of the hook scale it should go.
The Saga is actually a touch weaker than the original Epic, despite the slightly stronger core. Why? That hybrid coverstock. There is a ton of overlap between the two, but the Epic makes a harder move off the break.
As far as the planet lines, you need to define "dry". Then take your planet ball.
The mid-range is something that can be touchy as well. The Horizon's are both deceptively powerful. However, if you can get a hold of an RS-X, you'd have something weaker in core, but similar in cover. The RS-X is weaker than the Horizon Solid, but more powerful than any of the planets.
Hope this clarifies.
