I like the FitD dice mechanic, and didn’t jive well with anything else, but hey if someone wants to run it, I’m down.
One of the idea I’ve found interesting is Legacy: Life Amongst the Ruins, using the reskin for Spaaaaace.
The basic idea of Legacy is you’re playing both ‘your family/clan’ and a prominent person within that clan.
… and also supporting characters in each of the other player’s clans, when it’s called for.
The Spaaaace reskin reframes that to the Clan being a ship or group of ships, so (super simplified) everyone’s a ship captain doing their thing, and everyone’s playing their own ‘captain’ (doesn’t have to be a captain - rebellious Starbuck or Lee Adama or XO or whatever works too), and when you’re in the spotlight, everyone pulls their mini-PC for that fleet and joins in.
As I understand it.
It’s also generational, so you play to a point where the current arc concludes, then jump ahead X years and see where things have gotten to.
… and… as cool as that sounds to me, it also does not in ANY WAY sound like a short one-or-two sessions, so I’m NOT putting it up for consideration within the current pondering, which is why it’s here.

Well, you know I’m a sucker for the “everyone plays supporting PCs to each other’s PCs/Captains/etc.” model.
For this Ungrateful City
The City you live in is a place of wonders and dangers.
The leaders of the City have become aware of a rising threat, unlike any the City has faced before.
The City has chosen you, a group of supers, to team up and face this threat.
The City chose you because she knows that you love her.
“For This Ungrateful City” is a Descended from the Queen game about a team of supers tasked with defending a City they may decide is not worth saving.
