<t> I find Galactic Civ and Distant World both very enjoyable games in their own right. As you know Galactic Civ is turn based wheras Distant Worlds is real-time. The degree of automation in Distant Worlds is excellent and the universe feels alive with private ships pursuing their own objectives ...

I just wanted to congratulate the developers of Distant Worlds for a very fun, challenging game that is also highly addictive [8D] This is the the most fun space strategy game I am played in a long time. Consider this an at-a-boy from the not so vocal user community.
