I am thinking BP clusters in the 4 boosters and long burn AP cluster in the main (airstarted of course)

Cool!!!

Might have trouble finding scale data tho

20 motors....

That would be noisy...

Scale data? You don't need no steenking scale data. Just do a stand-off version based on the photos

And..I have to check out that forum...

Should be data available on the Energia booster. The battle station could be scaled from the drawings and pictures.

There is quite a lot of data out there. Try searching for "Polyus". Also have a look at this link - great cutaway of the internals too.

Yep, it's the Energia booster with Polyus. Drawings are available; go to the Energia/Buran thread in Scratch Built and see mine and you'll find links there. Here's a pic of my finished Energia. It's a central , offset 24mm mount. I can put two mini engine mounts in two of the strap ons.
