More to the point, IMO, it is the indepth strategy, vs reaction time with a keyboard and mouse.

Depends on what part you are talking about. There are a few out there that are close, and some with 'better' peices. I'd say Dom II is better in some important ways, but not everything.
Look at Stars!, and take into account that it was created (as far as I can determine) 7 years before Dom I and still has alot of GUI features that make Dom II seem clunky. I'll also point out that Stars! was created mainly by 2 programmers, not a big company.
