No they don't. Turn based space games are not at all like sports sims.

It does if you are looking for a true sports sim.

It's adding a gameplay scenario to a game purely for the enjoyment of the challenge using a set of already really solid gameplay mechanics. Why is there anything wrong with that? Does it really matter that the gauntlet isn't "sim"?
