Yeah, pretty much. I'm not in any rush with it, really. I need to go read a pile of Wikipedia articles or something so I have a better idea of how
Basically, it's the idea that people go to colonize a planet, but someone beats them to it. Fairly well used. It's got a few twists in it, though. First, that they set out, but then their own civilization figured out a way to travel a lot faster and then colonized that planet before those people even arrived. (I'm figuring a fair time interval here.) Second, that in the intervening time the cultures have diverged enough that they don't get along so well. Third... um. I'll shut up now. :P Anyway, there's stuff that differentiates it clusters away from Khan.
