I started a new game with the 1.3 patch (didn't play 1.2 much).  Nice start, 2 bread basket planets near my homeplanet.

    Colonized both planets, reloaded, did it again.  And again.  Sucky colonization events I can live with, but sucky colonization events plus sucky colony capital placement = ragequit.

    I tried a dozen times from various save points out of sheer pique.  Maybe one time in 3 the capital ended up someplace sensible, but never twice in a row.

    Please allow us to place our capitals.  I hate being railroaded like this by the RNG.  At least when I am hit with sucky colonization events (this is for my first 2 planets outside my home system that will be feeding my main shipyard, so I am kinda picky) I have the illusion of choice, if only between 3 mediocre to lousy choices.
