'''Tak Base''' was a minor [[Alliance to Restore the Republic/Legends|Rebel Alliance]] base on [[Talay/Legends|Talay]],<ref name="Strongholds" /> under the command of Admiral [[Toka]] during the early years of the [[Galactic Civil War/Legends|Galactic Civil War]].

Several months after the [[Evacuation of Yavin]], Tak Base became the target of the first demonstration of the [[dark trooper]] project. The new [[Galactic Empire/Legends|Imperial]] troopers [[Attack on Tak Base|quickly wiped out]] the base and all the personnel present (and killing many civilians in the siege), proving their efficiency to [[Anakin Skywalker/Legends|Darth Vader]]. Only the ''[[Grey Damsel]]'' escaped the planet, but a single hidden dark trooper spelled out its demise.<ref name="SB">{{Tales|4|Sand Blasted}}</ref>

The massacre mobilized the Rebellion, and [[Mercenary/Legends|mercenary]] [[Kyle Katarn]] was sent by [[Mon Mothma/Legends|Mon Mothma]] to [[Mission to Talay|investigate]]. In the ruins of the base he discovered an abandoned dark trooper rifle. This evidence allowed him to discover the secret dark trooper project, tracing it to [[Moff/Legends|Moff]] [[Rebus (Galactic Empire)|Rebus]] on [[Anoat/Legends|Anoat]] and finally to the ''[[Arc Hammer]]''.<ref name="DF">''[[Star Wars: Dark Forces]]''</ref>
