Ascendancy ? Good game; I liked the simultaneous movement concept, much better then either TBS or RT; good diplomacy; great variation in races; exploring and expanding was fun; the techs were cool too.
But I never play it anymore.
From the moment you had an empire with some size, the micromanagent killed the game and when you had an empire to be proud on, you literally spent 99% of your time on managing your colonies. Automation sucked.
Another thing I hated were the limitations on you fleet size, you could only build a ship per system you controlled. Fleet sizes should be limited by the costs they carry for your empire (as in moo2), not by one or another silly rule.
