Good point -- whatever system you use has to be able to handle vehicle and space combat in a way that makes the ships "cool" but still keeps the characters "in the lead roles".

Re: Capturing the Feel of Star Wars
It is one thing to suspend your disbelief. It is another thing entirely to hang it by the neck until dead.
Verisimilitude -- n, the appearance or semblance of truth, likelihood, or probability.
The concern is not realism in speculative fiction, but rather the sense that a setting or story could be real, fostered by internal consistency and coherence.
