Triumph Bases

I often get asked questions about base building and how to go about stacking, making walls and placing objects. I thought it would be easier for the Triumph community to have a resource here on our forum with some helpful links and tips. Interestingly enough, when I tell people to check the forums under “base construction”, they pretty much say that it’s a lost cause and that their questions never really get answered. Well, I can assure you that being the friendly server, no question will go unanswered! Feel free to add some helpful links.

My Top 3 Links
Stacking Guide – thanks to CaptA
General Base Overview
Base FAQ – thanks to Snow Globe

Also, post pictures of those bases! Triumph has some great base builders and I am eager to see your work!

I am in the middle of reworking my base after the changes to the SG logos on the glass panes which was a major set back for me. Anyway, here is my medical bay. The theme of our base is Tech and our layout is more for PvP (when we use to raid), which is why I prefer not to have it all jazzed up. Lag is the death! I am reworking it and will post updated pictures as it progresses.

WHy don't you just link it to the stuff in the base forum? Much more comphrehensive.

Will you be the key to the Knives of Artemis' survival? or the instrument of their destruction?

The base I built can be found in the "post your coolest post-I13 rooms" thread here. We even got published in the City Scoop. I have not have the time to update after they made the logo change - so many rooms now have logos where there were none. Sigh.

Nonetheless, I am happy to provide tours, and I am available for building labs if anyone wants a demo on how to do it.

Awesome bases. Rhynwa I may have to take you up on that offer sometime. Our SG's a 3 mo. baby, but we've been working hard on our base. We're all pretty clueless on how to do some of the more fundamental things, so any help you or others can offer would be appreciated!

basically, if you see a miki on Triumph, it's probably cute and it's probably me.

Huge thanks to cuppamanga and all the folks in the mac help forum for prolonging my borrowed time on this game.

I like how you have some rooms arcane and others tech. Do you have a pic of the overview?

We need to do a pvp farm for that room...

Ah. You know, I am putting together a crack team to hit up RV for the Scorpion Surprise badge. You can join us and we can return the favor.

Just a note here.

You can get Scorpion Surprise by running Mender Silos over and over.

Yea we have scorpion surprise already, I just need VG PvP keeels and a lot of 'em, our VG didn't get into base raiding enough to grab the needed amount for new high end machinery before the dreaded nerf. We farmed for another SG in Warburg one night, split the SG in half and smacked each other around until the badge message appeared. Thinking of maybe setting that up again.

I know the Dolls have one of the best bases Ive ever seen, and Decorator did a great job on The Feline Fellowship.

Our base concept is that you have to enter a sewer to get to the real goods. Here are up to date pictures, when I am done with the full room, I will post them again. Enjoy!

Entrence
Walking into the sewer
Look from below the city
View from the corner
View from the corner as well

Secret passage to the base
Leading in to the base
View from the other side of the base looking in

So this room isnt what it seems. Sure its a sewer, but when baddies enter, they will be in for a rude welcome! Check out the scopion suprise guns!

From the front
From the side
From the corner
From the top

Here are some pictures of the guns when they are hidden. During raids, they pop up from below. Thought this pic looked cool.

We should try to get a Triumph base tour going. Personally, I would love to see what other base designers are doing to their bases.

Anytime I'm on, except Sunday evenings (SG night), I'm happy to give a tour of Unbidden's base. It's not entirely done, since we've just gotten re-inspired to work on it again (the teleporter rooms are half-finished, the hanger room isn't entirely done. I'm redoing the medical room to be 2-storied.. etc).

Question...how do these tours work. Invite to the team then everyone passes the star a long for base access?

Pretty much... You set a time and place for the tour group to meet (like the portal in PI) and you play pass the star. For tours on other servers, you make a lvl 1 toon named "Tourist" or "Base viewer" or any of a number of silly names, and you hop in. I have always enjoyed going on base tours. Having a guide (namely the builder) means you don't miss out on some of the more special, but small, touches in design or 'function'.

Well then how about we do the base tour after we take the Triumph server player group pic on Saturday 8/22? Since the pic will be taken in Pocket D and there is a base portal there.

Well get crackin'!

Kidding.....well we could do another one in a month. Maybe have a recurring base tour every month or two. Most of us base builders/designers are never happy to leave well enough alone .

I still have to strip out all of my glass and all of my SG tiles and THEN re-install them all due to the SG symbol changes. Sigh. I best get crackin' - there is a LOT of repairing.
