I gave up on BOTF (Bored Of The Federation: Star Trek Infrastructure).
It just wasn't my thing. I get my Micro Management kicks at work. A lot of the 4X games don't have stress events often enough. It all seems like a big MM set piece that ends with an overwhelming victory.

I have been playing MOO 1. Now that game allows for frequent action without killing resource growth. SEIV also flows like that.

I have been playing STARS! multiplayer also. It can have some frequent stress points, but.... building and playing with your toys will really put your economy behind.
