Are there any good ones for the Mac?

I've played Spaceward Ho! (simplistic IMHO of course).
Galactica AD (Weak interface, too much Air Traffic Controllers in space)
Star Conquest (Pointlessly complex, interface oddities)

What else is there besides MOO3 (Masters Of Orion 3)?


For reference I've played on the Windows side:
Space Empires 3
MOO
MOO 2 (Buildings/combat suck )
Galactic Civilizations
Stars!

With SE3 and Stars! being my favorites.

Not sure if this fits the bill or not, but it is space related at least.

X2: The Threat. Freeverse is distrubitung it state side, VP is doing the port and handling the U.K. side of things. Supposed to be out in April. I'm looking forward to it.
Curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal!

Your best bet it to stick with MOO and play in Classic mode. MOO rocks 'em all.

Gotcha.

By the way Space Empires 5 will be ported to the Mac if we ever get a Delphi compiler.

And yes, MOO does rock. Just thought that there might be some other stuff out there that I missed.
