Valkyrie Station

Not to be confused with GoF3D's Valkyrie, the expansion pack, or the planet of the same name.

Valkyrie is a space station and a battlestation in the Her Jaza system.The station itself orbits Valkyrie planet, which bears resemblance to the backside of Jupiter. Its owner is Alice, who used it in her sinister plans. Eventually, Keith T. Maxwell's Khador Drive was installed on it, which later drove the station into Void Space due to the 2% error, later to be used as a base for a Plasma Array in the Supernova storyline and is eventually destroyed by the implosion of the Supernova.

The visual difference between the Valkyrie's "normal station" and "battle station" modes is that in "normal station" mode its sides are folded, while in "battlestation" mode they are unfolded.

Trivia

 * Since Valkyrie Station is also a spaceship, it is probably the second biggest ship in GoF2, only beaten by the Void Mothership.
 * Valkyrie Station's tech level is 8.
 * To transport this station via Khador Drive supposedly requires 1,000 Energy Cells, according to Alice, despite it only costing 1 (2 in extreme) for your ship to get to and from void space, this is likely due to the ship's massive size.
 * Ironically, teleporting to Void Airspace always costs the same amount of cells, no matter how big the player's ship is.
 * Its warp animation is reused from the hyperdrive sequence at the beginning of GOF2.
 * The Valkyrie Station is also the only known station that has mounted weapons. All other stations are either defenseless or require station security.
 * It is briefly seen in the Valkyrie add-on teaser, attacking two Deep Science ships with Liberators. Normally, this is impossible, as only 1 Deep Science NPC ship was seen in the DLC NPCs can't use Liberators. The in-game station attacks with turrets only.
 * It is not known how the Valkyrie station came to be.
 * It's named after the planet Valkyrie.
 * The mission of stealing the K'Suukk hints that Valkyrie might be Alice' personal station.
