I found the difficulty to be a bit much, and any more than 1v1 nearly impossible, as they tend to gang up on the human. Maybe I just suck at playing it.

That must be it. I played it three times, and I won three times.

Actually, the game gets easier the more AIs you add (FFA). You'll have an easier game with 8 players than with 4. Less than 4 might be easier than 4, too. I started with normal AI and then mixed hard and normal half and half. Interestingly, three of the hard AIs were out even before the normal ones.

Also, the weird scrolling/zoom thing is unwieldy, as if you zoom in close enough to see the actual ships (and not the icons representing them) you can't even see a battle, as the ships are too far apart to both be seen in the screen.

I wouldn't say unwieldy, but this game definitely makes you use the mouse wheel much more than any other game. You don't need to change all three axis, though. I usually have one rotation fixed so that it plays just like a 2D game.
