Triumph of the Galactic Empire was a pro-Galactic Empire painting created some time during the Galactic Civil War. It depicted a Glory-class dark trooper holding a T-21 light repeating blaster, with smoking ruins behind it and a corpse (presumably Rebel) reaching a hand into the air on the bottom right.. It was sometimes released separately, although a multi-painting version combining it with its pro-Rebel counterpart, Victory of the Rebel Alliance, Forces Under Siege, did exist.
Behind the scenes[]
Triumph of the Galactic Empire was awarded to players following the release of Game Update 15. It was a random selection between two paintings for players who reactivated their accounts between February 1 and March 1 (the other painting being Victory of the Rebel Alliance, although players whose accounts were in good standing before February 1 and continued to be in good standing after March 1 were rewarded with both paintings via the multi-painting, as a way to gain both paintings as a bonus. It is the only known painting under the multi-painting category within the game.
The painting has a number of "modes" that can be accessed via the "painting controls" option in the radial menu. These modes are:
- Rebel Painting - shows the Victory of the Rebel Alliance painting.
- Imperial Painting - shows the Triumph of the Galactic Empire painting.
- Cycle Paintings - will automatically switch appearance between the two paintings on a timer.
- Reflect Planetary Control - will automatically switch the painting to show the winning faction in the Planetary Control Game for the current planet.
- Reflect Galactic Control - will automatically switch the painting to show the faction that controls the galaxy.
