* NumericalHard: The difficulty level of the game controls the number of times the Jump Core must be repaired to win, and in the case of the Insane level, the initial number of torpedoes.

* SubsystemDamage: In addition to the Warp Core (which starts out damaged, and must be repaired to win the game) and the Shields (which are damaged and repaired in increments of 10%), there are 6 ship systems that can be taken offline (or destroyed). Players cannot use offline (or destroyed) systems until they repair (or reinstall) those systems.

* SciFiNameBuzzwords: Played straight in a few cases (like the Epinephrine Ventilation upgrade), but largely averted. Torpedoes are not [[PhotoprotoneutronTorpedo photoprotoneutron torpedoes]]. The Jump Core is not a [[Film/GalaxyQuest quantum flux drive]]. The Rifle and Pistol are not a [[WeWillUseLasersInTheFuture laser rifle]] or a [[Franchise/StarTrek phaser pistol]].

* WeWillUseLasersInTheFuture: Another aversion. The terms rifle and pistol are used, without any "laser" or "phaser" or TechnoBabble adjectives.

* AlmightyJanitor: The Janitor can fix the jump core single-handedly in a very short time as long as the other players can keep feeding him Engineering cards, thanks to his ability to trade actions for skill discounts (and the fact that he gains an additional action while carrying a tool). It's even more effective if you can manage to get the Epinephrine Ventilation upgrade, which gives everyone an additional action. (Discussed [[https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/1612194/janitor-did-we-play-right here]] and [[https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/1892251/janitor-wins-game here]].)
