Then I suggest you look at http://freecivac.sf.net/ which adds various
SMAC-like features to Freeciv. It doesn't do anything more than
extremely basic scripting though (most of the work to date has involved
getting SMAC buildings and units to work, and implementing borders).

There was a patch to add Python scripting to Freeciv once upon a time.
No idea what the current status of this is though.

P.S. Fix your line wrapping.
