A newly minted Captain begins a career in a gritty sci-fi future
Take the commission. Lead your ship. Explore, discover, fight
Take up the commission of a newly minted Captain and explore the great unknown. Discover colonisable planets, command troops, and carry Ermak into exacting space battles. Ground combat, social conflict, military operations, and ship warfare use concrete d6 procedures rather than narrative handwaving. There are no levels: skills improve through successful use.
