One thing about Perry Rhodan that I like is that it does not mess around with space battles. Like, a normal-sized battle will have tens of thousands of ships, each hundreds of meters to several kilometers in size fielded on either side, often ending with loss of life in the hundred thousands to millions. Really feels like it‘s huge galactic empires at war, rather than the smallish-looking skirmishes you get in, say, star wars or star trek.
