as what colony is there to play as then? playing as the hibernation supercolony would be OP and way to easy, other then that all other extra levels don't really have colonies with there own gimmick or special location
i'm taking not only raw power as factors, i also look at strategical position: how much food is avialable, how does their underground(base build space) look like, what creatures are near them?
one problem i see here, "weaker colony" from what i get all colonies are supposed to have their ups and downs, with none that are worse then the others
