How about making the number of conditions something that is modable? So those who mainly want to fight wars on a grand strategic scale can keep things simple, but those who like the colonization aspect can make it as complex as they like. (What other conditions might people think of? How about atmospheric pressure, for instance?) Also, you could allow/disallow various forms of terraforming. Like, some people might think that changing gravity is going too far, but others wouldn't. And maybe you could allow some types of terraforming for some races but not for others.
