And they all depended on what the pilot of each ship rolled for initative.It is still a fiddly hack-n-slash game that just happens to be set in a space setting for framing. And where gear has costs that are exponentially higher the better the better the item. And nope, you can't use said items if you are not of high enough level.One game that oddly enough imo might work as inspiration for things with different tech levels, is one that is extremely setting specific. And that is Atomic Robo from Evil Hat. It is based on the comic Atomic Robo (which is brilliant), and is of course FATE-based. But, this is important, it differ a lot from how Fate Core/accelerated works. It lends itself very well to pulpy stories, as it has to cover things that range from dinosaurs (well one of the villains claim to be one that has travelled forward in time from 65 million years ago to stop the large Hadron Collider form starting), to pulp stuff in the 20's to hardboiled action in WW2, and space exploration and other dimensions.  And everything is "For Science!".</blockquote>
