Hi!
Usually there are closer greens/yellows to dump excess pop on, but I've also been blindly sending colonizers + pop freighters on far clusters, but only after I settled closer planets I wanted. Settling with just 2500 pop far away from a zone, where I can enforce my will is IMO asking for trouble. Colonizing in force (with 50k+ pop and support of light skirmisher to destroy their pop transports) is IMO a viable tactics. OTOH such a far-flung colony must dedicate first several years (even decades) to defenses, not resources.

BR, Iztok
