Alliance Comms Center

The Alliance Comms Center was a facility that was constructed on the Inner Rim planet Thyferra by the Galactic Empire before it attempted to recapture the world around the year 0 BBY. After being built, the structure was eventually abandoned and subsequently came into the possession of the Alliance to Restore the Republic, an organization rebelling against the Imperial government. The Alliance also constructed anti-infantry turrets near the uplink and maintained a garrison of Rebel troopers and two T2-B repulsor tanks in close proximity.

Around 0 BBY, Darth Vader, the Sith apprentice of Galactic Emperor Palpatine, invaded Thyferra with an Imperial force of stormtroopers and All Terrain Scout Transports led by a field commander in an attempt to rout the treacherous Moff Kalast.

The Imperial forces killed the Rebels guarding the communications center before destroying the building itself under orders from Vader and continuing with their assault. The Alliance base was eventually ravaged and its garrison neutralized.
