Swarming Colony
A swarming colony is used to Found New Colony or to Colonize an existing Nest .
When you start the game and select a species you get 2 swarming colonies. Normally you obtain new swrming ccolonies by ordering a Controlled Colony to Swarm and a swarming colony is created near the colony after some time.
Any allied player, in the same Species, may Pick Up it if they have space in Inventory and enemy players may kill Swarming Colonies on the ground.
If a swarming colony is not picked up after a longer time period it will die.
If you have no swarming colony and for some reason may not order a controlled colony to swarm and pick it up you may Get Free Swarm also.
