Aah.... Legend of Galactic Heroes. Die Neue These is a re-do of the original series. And big fleet battles are a hallmark of the series. And a damnned good series. I cannot recommend either the new version, or the old one, enough.

Sorry about the delay for the last snippet. I literally had to put a full halt to it when I realized that I had neglected to work out fully half of the deWulf crew ranking system! While I'd worked out the command and flag ranks long ago, everything up to Lieutenant Commander was entirely missing (so...
