[SIZE=9pt]Height[/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]: 10,000m[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Armament[/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]: Low[/SIZE]
- [SIZE=9pt]Focused on defensive weapons: a mix of quad lasers, point defense CIWS, flak cannons, antimissile octets, and [/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]QQ-C15 Hushabye[/SIZE][SIZE=9pt] rotary ion cannons. Instead of offensive weapons, Port Dameron mounts five Great River long-range tractor/pressor emplacements.[/SIZE]
- [SIZE=9pt]For a station of this size, comprising decent [/SIZE]armor[SIZE=9pt], standard countermeasures, and strong shields.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Hangar[/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]: NA [/SIZE]Civilian stations are not used to hold starfighter squadrons. You may list Vehicles or Docking Bays for capital ships other items of note here
- The original Saelari Medical Centre had only 15 docking bays and no dedicated starfighter complement. The refitted station likewise prioritizes non-military hangar capacity. Port Dameron has the cavernous hangar bays of a full-sized starport. It can hold, repair, and refit ships up to heavy cruiser/heavy freighter scale, as well as dozens of light freighters. It has numerous external docking ports. In terms of military small craft, Port Dameron supports four squadrons as follows:
[SIZE=9pt]Maneuverability Rating[/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]: Very low[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Speed Rating[/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]: Very low[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Hyperdrive Class[/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]: 5[/SIZE]

[SIZE=9pt]Description[/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]: The Saelari Medical Centre was the pinnacle of modern Republic engineering, a gigantic station capable of saving lives on a grand scale. Decommissioned and forgotten during one of the Republic’s more warlike and revisionist phases, it languished at the edge of the Coruscant system for years. When the One Sith took Coruscant, the hulk was overlooked. Led by General Jorus Merrill, an Underground covert team infiltrated the system in freighters and linked the decrepit station to the equipment necessary for its theft. The station was moved to the Anaxes system, where the Republic happily paid for its return -- and then, pressed by the demands of a long and losing war, did absolutely nothing about it. The Anaxes system fell shortly thereafter; once more, the One Sith overlooked the immense, powerless hulk. Merrill’s young daughter Mara, enlisting the aid of an Underground team, repeated her predecessors’ feat and stole Saelari Medical Centre again. The station was moved to a secure location in Mandalorian territory, under the aegis of a sympathetic clan willing to look the other way. With the aid of the Exchange, the station was retrofitted under the code name Port Thesh. Its appearance was changed somewhat, to obscure its origin and bolster its structural integrity. Eventually dubbed Port Dameron, the station became a full-scale shadowport and resistance base of operations, comparable to [/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]Rebellion Actual[/SIZE][SIZE=9pt].[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Port Dameron retains several elements from Saelari Medical Centre. Like the original station, Port Dameron can comfortably support upwards of eighty thousand passengers and crew. It has a consumables rating of fifteen standard years. Its supercapital-grade hypermatter reactor has been retrofitted and thoroughly updated. Its immense hangar capacity has been repurposed from medical transportation to civilian and starfighter docking. Though its gigantic medical capacity was removed years ago -- Saelari once boasted a hundred thousand bacta tanks -- Port Dameron is still capable of serving up to five hundred patients if necessary. It is a common location for Underground fighters to get patched up.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Port Dameron has basically any service one might need in a shadowport. Infochants, outlaw techs, fences, cantinas, everything. However, it spent years as a derelict and was not professionally restored. Some portions of [/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]its interior is still a little wreck-ish.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=9pt]Currently, Port Dameron is located inside the Kathol Outback. It moves when necessary for security reasons.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=9pt]Unlike most of the station, and built into the very heart of this station is a two-kilometer stretch of greenery and glass buildings called “Liberty Falls”. Here dignitaries from all over come to discuss matters of state and settle disputes as needed in the lap of total luxury. The area is designed to impress all who enter it and is the “Nice” side of town as far as the station goes.[/SIZE]
The Cage
[SIZE=9pt]([/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]image source[/SIZE][SIZE=9pt]) [/SIZE]https://s-media-cache-ak0.pinimg.com/originals/e9/7a/ea/e97aeaf803ee5e6268e34828fedd33b0.jpg
[SIZE=9pt]Build onto the aft quarter of Port Dameron is a massive ship repair and refit area nicknamed “the Cage”. Build with a folding scaffold design it can be extended to house many capital sized ships or retracted when the station needs to move. The Cage extends along the station's major axis from the flat sides of the torso, so it does not increase the station's key dimensions. The Cage is most effective when servicing cruisers or smaller vessels, though the scaffolding can be extended to partially embrace even a full-sized dreadnought Star Destroyers if necessary.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=9pt]As Port Dameron is often deployed to remote locations, feeding its crew can be a major undertaking. As such part of its interior space and exterior rings was converted over to hydroponics and now is used to grow much of the stations food needs. Medical and other scientific research also goes on here revolving around botanical studies.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=9pt]A zone of the station close to the Cage, the scrap yard is where salvage and raw materials are brought in to make custom modifications to Coalition vessels under construction or repair, or recycle old components into new ship systems.[/SIZE]
