Of course, I haven't seen the entire series yet. I was watching it up to the point it was licensed, and I haven't gotten around to buying the dvds yet.

Future episodes continue to explore more of the tactics unique to space combat that cannot be compared to earth combat.
In terms of sheer realism, there is no show that has ever equaled the combats of Starship Operators. I remember in one episode, they say it will take 3 days to enter firing range. Can anyone here recall any show that ever addressed the vastness of space so realistically? (And amazingly they keep up the tension in the story as well.) That is just a single example of what you'll encounter while watching this show.
