6 months ago I was really luck to join a group of Traveller players who each had their own campaign. They invited me set up my own campaign.
When I am refereeing, starship combat controlled by the PCs is a *must* in certain parts of the games.
THEY ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT.
And so do I. It is one of the best parts of the game. None of us had ever been part of a campaign where starship combat was a key ingredient.
Plus, my group of guys is the absolute best. I am very fortunate.

Definitely can. What's the point in even having starship combat in a game if the players can't influence the outcome? What's the point in even playing a game if you just sit on the sidelines watching things happen? Boring!
