Destroy Colony option missing from game

from GalCiv2 Forums
In GalCiv 1, there was a button somewhere in the colony management window to Destroy Colony. This MUST be included in GalCiv 2. When the AI stupidly colonizes low PQ worlds (like PQ 2 worlds!!) we need the ability to invade them and then destroy the worthless colony.

hmmm but should there be a size limit on what you can destroy? i mean if you invade a 27 computer planet realize that you cant keep it so instead of letting the computer take it again you then destroy it and leave seems kinda cheap to me. Unless the computer can be able to do that as well but that would get kinda annoying when you have to rebuild your entire planet over again specailly if its that big

Maybe itcould be tied to a morality impact?

Yes i agree more colonies you destroy the more "immoral" you become and can upset some more peaceful nations

you could also have it that the bigger the colony the more time it takes to destroy so that a level 27 planet with tons of structures would take too long to destroy before the computer gets there anyways so you might as well try to defend it

NO NO NO you all have this wrong. You need to borrow a page from Imperium Galactica 2! Have a seperate building that will act as a doomsday device destroyign the planet not just the colony! It would a deterant but not without cost, since space is limited it would occupy one of the special squares! But it would be awsome safeguard agianst enemy turnign your best planets agianst you.

Please agree with this idea and petition hard to have it put it. I think it would be awsome! And when used by the AI it would also be a pain in the butt!

Bad idea.

Much better idea.
