Turnstile
Some time back in the midst of 2007, a contest was announced and...time perhaps got a bit out of control and all whirly and obscure. So, it's 2008 and the contest is now concluded. Three outstanding entries, but just one winner. FahreS nipped to the finish line first claiming the most staff votes and certainly does so in style. The Turnstile is a simply lovely station that really has everything; weapons, construction...errr....stationy...stuff. It looks different, whilst fitting in perfectly with the Federation style imbued within it. The quality is certainly not amiss looking absolutely fantastic.
Content includes admirals pic, build button and wireframe along with those fabled Borg textures. The end result is something that looks great in game, can certainly hold its own and is a great starbase, able to produce essential craft (battleships and frigates and repair them) in times of need. Altogether, a fantastic download and definitely worthy of being the contest winner.
File also includes German readme.
