Starting Planet Type question.

[Tomgs]

A nice thing would be to have an option to have the starting type and atmosphere of your race random as it was in SEIII. Being able to pick the type and atmosphere adds to roleplaying so it should still be possible to pick it also. But sometimes I would like to be surprised and not have to pick it. I do agree that most times that the gas giants gives you an advantage but I have gotten huge rock no atmosphere planets and I have gotten medium gas giant planets. The gas giants do tend to be bigger and I don't think they can be below small, the rock and ice range from tiny to huge.
