I LOVE the new stations!

Absolutely adorable, The Dau G-11 one is -stunning-

Though, something I'm wondering about, (Can't help the criticism here) is, Why do the Barracks look more like Tourist camps than actual "barracks" ? I can understand the extravagant Mining stations (no, not really) but the Barracks don't seem very fighter-inclined.

I have a vision of the "old" S-2 and S-12 stations when it comes to barracks. Tight, enforced, with a lot of exitports and far less entrances.

I'm also delighted to see the S7 station reborn, very pleasant discovery, even though I miss the ferris-wheel stations some.

Could anyone post pictures of these new stations? I would absolutely _love_ to see them for myself.

Wow. This version's coolness factor just took a big leap. All in a stealth-update, too :p.

I wonder if there is an s10 station lurking about somewhere.

Sector 13's asteroid station has been updated and is in Dau G-11.

All of the modular stations are back. The custom ones aren't. (So the ones with the spinning wheels, the gear-shaped "ceres" station, the OLD s7 station, and the s10 station are not present, but all the others are.)

Glad you like them so far! I wish I had more time to distinguish better between a barracks and a mining station's designs, but at least now the size of the station is reflected visually. (You may notice that dinky little stations tend to not carry as many goods as the large nation capitols do.)
