Simpler space game for young uns

Red Chicken Rising.

Think cinematic FT with a looser movement system and simplified combat.

Quite a bit of fun, but I give one warning: DO NOT BUILD YOUR OWN SHIPS. You
will quickly discover fatal flaws in the construction system. The ships as
provided are fairly fun and somewhat balanced. But you find out
that guns cost 90-95% of the cost of a ship so you can build a high
shield ship with some ludicrous number of boarding factors for a song and
it'll kill the gun toting battlewagons. But if you ignore the broken points
system, it is a fun and fast game. And has a silly title. And is the only
wargames ruleset which starts with a shower scene.... (It's a joke you'll have
to get the rules to understand).

I give this one an 8 out of 10 for teaching younguns to play and for throwing
together a fast and easy game for them. It ain't no FT, but it ain't too bad
for what it is.
