I am a fan of turn-based, multi-player strategy space-themed war games. I am not a fan of real-time games mostly because I ike to mull my decisions, and it is difficult to get everyone together at the same time.
Currently I play the aging, but still great Space Empires IV. This game has some great features including being very mod-able, and great depth and variety of game play). There are some other old but great space-themed, turned-based strategy games (e.g. Master of Orion), but most of these either had no multi-player, or required everyone to be playing on the same computer.
Anyone on Soylent play a great turn-based strategy games which is space-themed, of which I might not be aware?

Those all aren't bad, though not my favorites - I'd say they are medium-good. I only can't judge battle of westeros, because I don't have this one.
But I have about 50 more other board games :)
You could try splendor, then think if you'd like to try my other recommendations ;)
