Victory cartoon
Deathsaurus never got a chance to use the Space City after completing it, because the Autobot commander Star Saber and his forces sealed the fortress into the Dark Nebula. From then on, Deathsaurus devoted his efforts to restore his fortress. He made attempts to gather the energy he needed, and some of his attempts at getting energy were actually successful. He eventually got the energy he needed and reactivated his fortress, and intended to use it to destroy the Earth. The fortress seemed invincible, and not even Victory Saber could stand in its way.
However, like any good superweapon, it had a fatal weak point (which Deathsaurus at least put on the inside of it), which the Dinoforce supplied to the Autobots out of spite to Deathsaurus for abandoning them. With this knowledge, Star Saber and Victory Leo set out to destroy the space fortress. During their attempts, Star Saber faced and defeated Deathsaurus in last duel, and Victory Leo took down the Decepticon combiner Liokaiser by throwing him into the fortress's main cannon. During the fighting Jan struck at the fortress's weakpoint (which was on the inside of it, it wasn't like some exhaust port that led to the power source the a pair of torpedoes can exploit and use to destroy it). However, Deathsaurus then tried to get the last laugh by sending his fortress a collision course with Earth, but Star Saber and Victory Leo then combined into Victory Saber and destroyed the fortress.
Deathsaurus, maybe you should try to avoid telling your superweapon's weakness to your expandable flunkies next time.
In the manga version of Victory, the fortress had a similar role for the most part, but there were some major differences. When Star Saber goes to destroy the fortress, Deathsaurus battles him in space himself as opposed to sending Liokaiser. However, Deathsaurus treacherous flunky Leozack turns the fortress on him, causing Deathsaurus to TURN AND CRIPPLED HIS OWN FORTRESS while Star Saber took out Leozack. After that Deathsaurus revealed that REAL reason he made such an effort to revive the fortress was that it turned out to be the home of several Decepticon civilians (that's a first), including his own wife.
