The Last Federation is the rather good mix of space combat and strategy simulation on Steam from the guys the made AI War & Bionic Dues. The developers have announced an expansion and even noted some details about their sales.
We took a look at the game back in April and found it to be pretty good, here's some footage for you:

About the expansion:
They also noted on their blog that the game has sold better than any other title for them, so you can expect them to support it well.
Features
-Turn-based tactical combat, with up to 5 factions competing at once.
-Extremely deep simulation of an entire solar system and its billions of inhabitants. Even just watching everything unfold in Observer mode is entertaining, as nations rise and fall.
-New-player-friendly ramp-up of complexity as you play, which you can disable if you're already a veteran.
-Eight races each have very distinct personalities and attributes. Each one even has its own completely unique political system.
-Difficulty levels split between the grand strategy and turn-based combat portions of the game, both ranging from quite casual to incredibly hardcore.
-Save and reload your game with ease any time, or tough it out in ironman mode.
-Composer Pablo Vega's best soundtrack to date, featuring 54 minutes of music and the vocal finale "Lay Down Your Arms."

About the expansion:
QuoteThe next chapter in The Last Federation's saga. If you're familiar with the expansion model for AI War: Fleet Command, you know the general idea here, although we also have some cool new tricks up our sleeve this time around.
Free updates to the base game have been thick on the ground since TLF's release a month ago, and we're going to continue with updates to the base game for a long time to come (not always at the breakneck pace we've had so far, but that's been true of AI War over the last 5 years, too). As with AI War's expansion, TLF's expansions will always be completely optional and just for the fans who want more of what they already love in an expanded universe. We never charge for bugfixes, balance updates, usability improvements, or so on -- that would be ludicrous.
Anyway, we're really excited about both where the base game is heading on its own, and about what this new expansion will bring to the table on top of that. Stay tuned!
