Additional thought: It strikes me that Red Sky A.M., in particular, has a built-in mechanism for struggling with the meaning or meaninglessness of death, because killed characters don't just drop out, you've got not only their squad but also their family to roleplay. Maybe the only statement has to be theirs.
