Think of it as a game first, before thinking of it as a computer game. If you and a friend were to sit down and play it as a board game, how would it work? What would the rules be? How would you move, fight, etc.? What about economics, research, population control? The computer can allow the rules and computations to be more complex and in depth than a playable board game, but there still need to be consistent rules.
