Homeworld (I and II) are perhaps the best strategy game I have ever played. I loved everything about them. Are there similar games in the markeT?

I was going to recommend _Cataclysm_, but after reading your post, I probably would have souned like a smartass.

You could try _Imperium Galactica II_. I heard it’s better than the first one, which was pretty good. If you like the 3-d ships things, maybe one of the _Descent_ games would be good.
