So there's one game I've wanted to find again for a while now; I think I only played the demo version. It was a space strategy game, probably from the late nineties. I recall pre-rendered 3d graphics, real-time battles on a 2D plane and being able to equip ships with stuff(like lasers). More interestingly, you could colonize a wide variety of planets, including the standard jungle, desert, magma etc., but also brown dwarves. Each planet type produced a few kinds of resources, like jungle planets producing aluminum and gallium(I think) while brown dwarves and magma planets produced diamonds and suchlike. These resources could be bought and sold on some kind of market, and I think there must've been some multiplayer component too, possibly even being the main focus of the game, so it may well be depreciated by now.

The closest I've found to that game was Pax Imperia 2, but that game seems a fair bit more primitive than I remember, and doesn't have some of the features I remember being in it.

Imperium Galactica 2, maybe?

Nope, that has actual 3d graphics, not prerendered sprites.
