So I'm somewhat of a grand strategy game junkie these days, mostly dabbling in Paradox's games like Europa Universalis and Crusader Kings or others like Galactic Civilizations. However, I'm looking for a new game to sink my teeth into with a theme of space colonization (more or less Galactic Civ...) except I keep running into the same problem...
Where do all of our nations go?
It seems like most game designers like to toss all of Earth into some happy little global world order without differentiating between different nationalities. Now I know current international policy towards the moon and the like insist on borderless territory... but where is the fun in that?
So what I'm getting at is: are there any good games that could let me recreate 15th/16th century Imperialism in space? Chinese colonies on the Moon, Russian colonies on Mars, etc.
Or just general thoughts on the subject.
