Default Open source - similar to SEIV
Are there any open source projects that are similar to Space empires and if so can someone provide me with a link - all these civ clones but no Master of orion or Space empire themed games ie space 4x type explore, expand conqueor diplomacy etc.

There is an effort underway to start an Open Source Master of Orion clone. MOO 3 was such a disappointment that the fans just decided to take matters into their own hands. Go to www.freeorion.org and follow it yourself. It's just getting started.

I see you didn't plug SE4 in the Other Strategy Games section. Shame on you!

Universe (http://www.sourceforge.net/projects/universe) is an old attempt at a 4X game written in Java, but it never really got very far, as far as I can tell...
