Hi Folks,



DTM did it again! This time it's a completely new vision of the Imperial Research Station. A completely new look from the rather boring original model. I hope you guys enjoy it as much as we do! Thanks again for Darksaber for providing the installer.

So go ahead and grab it while it's hot!

Magnificent work!
This is more Death Star style in comparison with that silly original game model.

Is it possible to blow up the energy generator in the core?

This is an 'AWESOME' opt, I use to hate this mission because of the poorly done opt. Well I have to use a another slot for my 'Deathstar'. Because I will leave this Imperial Research Center opt in its original slot. Well done DTM!!!

Sincerely, Rogue518

This is amazing! It's a far more satisfying design than the original. Hats off to DTM for his good work!

Holy heck that's awesome DTM. I see a lot of Rebels Lothal dome inspiration.

DTM, out of curiosity, could you do a Chimera paint for one of the flight groups for the ISDs?

The model and textures are 100% by DTM, but the design is not of my conception: it is the Imperial Construction Module, seen in Rebels. Together with the XWAUP Team we thought that this station, present in all the major imperial shipyards, could be a perfect Imperial Research Center. In fact, the Empire tends to standardize its installations.

Yeah, I recognized this Construction Module from the Rebels episode where Kallus and Zeb wound up marooned on Geonosis' ice moon Bahryn. This is damn nice work you guys did on this model.

Did it replace the Research Station in the Campaign Mission in the Kuat Orbit? Where you can Call Liberty for Reinforcement and the ISD Juggernaut arrive later?
