City-building and diplomacy, both features of games like the Civ-series, are the only things I can recall that MoM had that Dom 2 doesn't. Plus there are tons of MoM-like games already on the market (Dom2, AoW, Warlords, etc.). It's too bad Stardock already has their own 4X space game GalCiv, because if they wanted to do the gaming community a real big favor, they should buy the MOO license from Atari, instead of the MoM license, and fix all the bugs in MOO3 (or better yet, scrap it and make a MOO4).
