Events not enough of them

[The Aerain]

hmmm i dont know but i thought they said there would be over an hundreed of unique events but as far as i know ive only seen 12 of em does that mean, we just got tricked? hmm and it would be cool if they'd put an event preference option where you would pick and modify certain events, as far as that goes, it's would be awesome.

IIRC, a good amount of the events are random, i.e. not triggered on colonization, but at some random point in the game. In my experience, random events don't happen that often (usually about one every 25-30 months).
