Oh. ROFL! I didn't realize you were going for the "Evil Overlord" kind of thing there. There are more efficent ways of dealing with annoying populations, but I guess the inefficency is where the fun is. The fact that you would go to so much trouble to make their lives miserable shows what a cruel, heartless bastard you can be if you are shown the proper "respect". I LIKE it.

EDIT: Along with these lines, give us the ability to grant independance to a colony. Then you can turn around and glass it the next turn. MUUUHAHAHAHA! You can do the same thing now by gifting it to another race, but the other race has to accept the gift, then you run the risk of them getting upset at you for glassing the colony, and you don't get the satisfaction of the "Skull and Bones" log message telling you that you totally wiped that new empire out. Hehehehe, that would be so fun!
