| - The Hammer Station is a space-station that has a weapon of mass destruction within it that captures asteroids and redirects them towards planets, much like gigantic missiles - in effect transforming the station into a planet-killer device. It is a location in Star Wars: The Old Republic.
- Hammer Station is an early-game Flashpoint for both the Republic and the Empire . It is set on a massive weapon designed to fire asteroids on planets. Your job is to shut it off.
- Pressed by the Sith Empire during the war, the Republic Senate sank its meager resources into ever-more desperate measures to end the conflict. One of the resulting projects was Hammer Station, a prototype mobile facility built inside an asteroid around a combined tractor beam and massive gravity cannon. The tractor beam captured nearby asteroids, and the cannon launched the asteroids at near-relativistic speeds at a chosen target. No shield could handle that magnitude of kinetic energy. When positioned over a planet, Hammer Station was capable of devastating entire cities in a single shot.

| - The Hammer Station is a space-station that has a weapon of mass destruction within it that captures asteroids and redirects them towards planets, much like gigantic missiles - in effect transforming the station into a planet-killer device. It is a location in Star Wars: The Old Republic.
- Hammer Station is an early-game Flashpoint for both the Republic and the Empire . It is set on a massive weapon designed to fire asteroids on planets. Your job is to shut it off.
- Pressed by the Sith Empire during the war, the Republic Senate sank its meager resources into ever-more desperate measures to end the conflict. One of the resulting projects was Hammer Station, a prototype mobile facility built inside an asteroid around a combined tractor beam and massive gravity cannon. The tractor beam captured nearby asteroids, and the cannon launched the asteroids at near-relativistic speeds at a chosen target. No shield could handle that magnitude of kinetic energy. When positioned over a planet, Hammer Station was capable of devastating entire cities in a single shot. However, Hammer Station's attacks could not be tempered. The asteroids caused planet-wide dust clouds and groundquakes, rendering entire worlds nearly uninhabitable. After seeing the destruction, the Republic Senate could not authorize its use, even against the Empire, and ordered the project scrapped. The Hammer Station project files were classified and later destroyed in a Senate tower bombing after the Treaty of Coruscant was signed. Hammer Station was abandoned, left to drift through the galaxy. Ten years after the Sacking of Coruscant, the station was claimed by the Advozse Hegemony and was being used to conquer worlds in the Outer Rim. In addition, a multitude of Republic war droids left on the asteroid were captured, and reprogrammed on board the station. Darth Malgus, the conqueror of Coruscant, called together an Imperial strike team to board Hammer Station and destroy it, and also uncover exactly how the Advozse managed to acquire it. Similarly, Satele Shan, the Grand Master of the Jedi Order, called together Republic forces to investigate.
