Great, the targeted quake took out my second colony... Why don't you save the position of the first CC when it is build.
I discovered that "feature" a month or two back, and the next time I played this game I decided to have fun with it.

I was so pleased with the way it went I saved some screen caps, intending to post them here, but never got around to it. They're on my other computer, but I think I'll have time to post them tomorrow.
BTW: Anybody else here old enough to remember when "undocumented feature" was a popular euphemism for "bug"?
