Came by this rules set after finding the author's website when looking for some painting tips. Nicely written and well laid out this ruleset majors on movement, which lets face it in many other spaceship games are pretty pedestrian. For sanity sake this probably limits games to 3-4 maneuver groups per player if that's important to you, but unlike most spaceship games they don't play themselves and there is actually some thinking / decision making to do once fleet building is done.
Reminds me a little of Voidstiker but much simplified weapons & combat which is no bad thing really. Can't really go wrong for the price, although being a lazy bum I'd have liked some more sample ships / fleets.
