Neptune's Pride is a slow-paced browser strategy game. It's about ten years old now, I think. The conceit of the game is that you command fleets of starships to roam the galaxy, claim stars, and expand your economy, industry, and science to gradually conquer your opponents.

And here is an after-action report from an earlier version of the game, played at Rock Paper Shotgun.

But I really did enjoy that read and a lot of these abuses could be curbed with in-house rules (assuming they're even an issue at all now, since that AAR game was played ten years ago).
