So, I asked Raps, and he agreed to let me post this thread.

I'll cover some of the highlights:
So, why am I wanting to get people to notice this project? Simple: They've already got what looks to be a good start, right now. The project is fully funded, and will happen. But their next stretch goal, 1,800,000 dollars, is going to provide a procedurally generated galaxy module they call "Galactic War". Basically, infinitely replayable galaxy spanning wars amongst factions.
Right now, they're $171,000 short of their goal for this. They have just over 72 hours left. If they make this goal, I think it's going to change from being a 1-2 year game to being a decades long game.
I've already backed it as much as I can (and probably more than I should). Check it out, and I very much doubt you'll be disappointed. This looks awesome, and I look forward to playing it. Maybe even with you, if you want

I'll cover some of the highlights:
- Real time strategy game, being built by the same people who built Total Annihilation, Supreme Commander, and others. Penny Arcade does a better job of describing their history than I will.
- Support for Windows, Mac, and Linux on launch day.
- Support for 64 bit systems, multiple monitors, and multiple cores.
- DRM Free
- Smash planets into each other for fun!
- You can run your own server.
- Modding supported on launch day.
- Estimated release July, 2013.
