I'm thinking of running this with Fate Accelerated:

Star Wars: The Medusa Gambit
The Empire has fallen! As the New Republic begins to decommission the Alliance fleet and look to peace, threats from Imperial warlords still remain. On the Outer Rim world of Tathrine, one such warlord holds power. Grand Moff Oberon controls an entire sector and has a formidable space fleet at his command. Yet a group of resistance fighters seems determined to overthrow the tyrant and free their home world from occupation.

The New Republic refuses to send military aid to the Tathrine resistance, but a group of senators and sympathises secretly plot and scheme to back the rebels. A small band of smugglers and mercenaries have been hired in secret to deliver a small shipment of military equipment and medical supplies to Tathrine. Their mission is to get it into the hands of the resistance any which way the can. This means running an Imperial Remnant blockade and the stakes can be no higher…

The Player Characters
Alayda Vost: Leader of the expedition. Former Rebel Alliance officer, she takes no druk from anyone and is tough as nails. She is a no nonsense kind of lady and takes no prisoners in the metaphorical sense.

Dash Tari: Smuggler and pilot of the Ebon Wing. He has a number of death marks placed upon him already by various members of the underworld fraternity. He likes to take the dangerous jobs because they pay well.

Garok Ashak: A former bounty hunter. Nobody messes with this Trandoshan and lowlife fear his name. He has a sense of honour and lives to win Jagannath points to please his goddess the Scorekeeper.

ZX-C64: A reprogrammed Separatist battle droid. No one knows exactly how ZX has survived this long or who reprogrammed it. This droid is no pushover and has been programmed with a quirky sense of humour.

Zeemo: A former thief turned hacktivist. She’s a tough Rodian who likes to wield twin blaster pistols and knows her way around any computer or security system. She has a few friends in the underworld that owe her a favour or two.

@BenQ introduced me to the idea of creating Fate characters with ChatGPT. Using my game idea for Star Wars: The Medusa Gambit, (see my post above for details), I asked the AI bot to create some characters based on the brief descriptions above. The results surprised me, even though they required a little tweaking on my part, because they were actually quite good!
