It happened in games 683 and 762.  I loaded a few old turns from other 
games and it happened with them also.  If anything, it seemed more random.

Also, what is the significance of the change in font from regular text to 
bold?  I thought it meant that the ships  had already received orders but 
it also appeared random.
