I'm sure there's plenty of other war based themes which can still keep the original feel of attacking/defending, Travian is a typical example. It's just a case of coming up with a new convincing theme which hasn't really been done before.
Personally, I feel the whole dwarves and elves thing is more geeky than the giant spaceships thing. Then again, I think most people realise that the two only differ on the surface. You can convert a space based game to a fantasy based game by changing a few strings on the user interface and no one would be able to see its origins.

So he gave them the coy little wave and realized it probably would have been more effective if he hadn't been lying on their turkey.
