discover a planet with a race of sentient whales, and you have several options: enslave them (free labor, but causes unrest), exterminate them (you can now colonize the planet, but makes other races dislike you), or set the planet aside as a sanctuary (gains points with the environmentalist factions).

Yeah, I have a good handle on both those games, along with some of the other 4X's (and I think MM probably would too) - but I reckon Space Empires could do it better than any of them. Working on it now for fun. If it works out OK I'll send to 'em and see what they think. It's probably a bit too complex to go into here, though.
