Basically the same in Lost Fleet, they try to predict opponent moves and react to them in the shortest possible term before battle to concentrate fire where the enemy is weakest and remove their own ships from places where enemy is about to concentrate fire. Weapons being pretty primitive compared to Culture, some particle beams, missiles and swarms of ordinary steel balls (for depleting shields).
Also, while protagonists are usual murican-like corrupted-but-lesser-evil shitlibs, opponents are surprisingly not any proxy for China/DPRK/Russia/USSR, but Real Ancaps, which means they have worst traits of military junta, gigacorpo-turned-state stage of monopoly and mafia in one package.
Story itself is a sci-fi take on classic Xenophon' Anabasis, with protagonist being essentially isekaied war hero from century ago.
