How to quelsh rebellious colonies?

[The Rusty Gamer]

I have a question I haven't found the answer to. What do you do about stopping colonies that are in total rebellion? They just seem useless and there's nothing you can do about it.

 

[tour86rocker]

Huh? What are you talking about?

 

[tour86rocker]

Are you talking about when you conquer another gov't's colony? I'm pretty sure it gives you a counter of how many turns until it is no longer rebellious.

 

[The Rusty Gamer]

Oh, OK then. Didn't notice a counter.

Yeah, icon of a fist over the colony with a number under it.
