Description

Toxic worlds are extremely toxic making it very hazardous to most life forms in the galaxy. Unfortunately, for most races this makes it a deadly planet where all but the most hearty lifeforms can survive. Because of this it is one of five extreme planets which require additional technologies to be able to survive in this environment.

Strategy

One may try to research the technology Atmospheric Cleansing as soon as possible, especially in a galaxy crowded with races and limited expansion opportunities. Suggestion: Colonize normal planets first and extreme planets second. When choosing a Radioactive planets to colonize, choose something on the border of your neighbors ZOC (zone of control [influence]) to attempt to persuade inhabitants in the area to join your culture.

Which races able to immediately colonize?

Currently there are no races that are able to colonize this planet type at the start of the game, however, it is possible that a race would be added in the future in a DLC (Downloadable Content) or expansions that this will become possible.
