i cant rememerb the prices but the stat up room is where to go and the starter control/power3x3 in control list for about 50k then add on a workshop2x2 and a hospital bay 2x2 that should give you room to place 3 storage items your ress machine and plenty space to mess about with for a few 100k prestige
ive dun alot of messing about with the base editer thingy and foun this to be the cheapest useful base to do, if you need any more advice feel free to gimi a shout ingame im sure i can loan you an alt to help sort it out the globals @bru

Over the last few months I've done a similar low-end base build myself; to get started with any sort of functional base, you need a 3x3 Oversight Centre (50k Prestige) and the snappily named Combo Power and Control Unit (25k) to give you the power and control to make things work.
You can put a single salvage rack (15k) in the same room and this will let you store up to 999 base salvage items. This may not be what you really want, as base salvage can only be used to make items for the base and it sounds like you don't want to make many/any of them, but the bad news is there's no invention salvage store to be had at all. The closest you can get is a Personal Storage Vault (100k) which will let you access the same area as the in-zone Vault Reserves. It doesn't increase your Vault capacity at all, it just lets you access the storage from the base.
For medical purposes the smallest you can get is a 2x2 room (50k Prestige) which will hold a single Reclaimator (10k). This heals you up to 25% Health and End, and to be honest as a small group you're unlikely to qualify for any of the add-ons that could increase the figure (they need 25 million HP healed in SG/VG mode) without one of you being an Empath up for some major farming.
Both of these rooms allow as many decorations as you want.
You can also add extra square decorative rooms for 150k each (from 3x3 up to 8x8, price independent of size) which can hold nothing but decorations. As some of the smaller functional rooms are cheaper than 150k and allow decorations anyway, I'd consider these rather than a 3x3 pure decorative (a second Oversight Centre's 3x3 for 50k, for example, although you can't fit a second Power/Control combo to it).
How's that for the basics?
Very helpful, thank you! I'll let you all know how it works out...
To be honest the medical etc stuff is so we can pretend to use it for something - really it's just to be our swanky batchelor pad where we relax after fighting crime.
I'm a little confused by this whole base-building...
A friend and I have a (padded) SG, so are looking to build a basic base.
All we really -need- is an empty room (or two) to decorate as our superheroic batchelor pad, one of those basic reclaimator things that lets you rez in your base and go back to the zone you came from, and somewhere to store salvage.
So to do that... how much space do we really need, and how much does it cost? I'm not really sure what items you need in order to set up other things etc...? The guides etc are all a bit intimidating...
Thanks!
