Hello everyone!

It was suggested that I make a post here by a few friendly voices in the BaseBuildersInc. channel. I've recently begun a huge overhaul of my SG's base on Virtue, and I am so very very overwhelmed.

I was hoping to be able to recruit some help/co-builders with it. I'm not very experienced myself, and I want it to look very nice. Our base-builder left the game a few months ago due to RL issues and the responsibility fell to me.

Prestige is no issue at all. We have around 80 mil to use on the base. We have all items unlocked and available for use.

The theme is that of a spaceship, and I have in my mind, a design sort-of-like the Enterprise. A good mix of tech and comfort.

If anyone is interested in this at all, please let me know. I would greatly appreciate it. Feel free to send me a tell ingame @Terra Ryzing or message me on these forums, or reply here with how I can contact you.

Thank you in advance, Base Gurus!

Love me or hate me, it's still an obsession.

I was going for a spaceship them for a while... never got too far with it, but I'll post some old pics to give you some ideas...



This is an overshot of the entire "ship". You can see how incomplete it was!

The bridge is in front, and is reminiscent of a starfleet-style bridge. It's a Control room, allowing me to put a Mega monitor and a large control computer in there. I use small Control computers to make a U-shaped navigational station so it worked out nicely. The room was "too big" so i made it appear smaller by filling it with large tech objects.

Behind that is mostly unused hallways. The biggest problem with the base editor is that we can't put items in "doorways", which means if you want connecting halls and separate floors and such, they all have to be inside one room... so I didn't really bother decorating these areas. I believe at one point i had added large rooms and started deccing them out, but it was too much of a chore, plus the design of the base started to wear on me.

Then there's the entrance room, Teleport bay, and Engineering. On either side was a med bay (that was never finished) and a raid porter (just because) and then the crafting/storage area.

Engineering looked pretty cool, IMO...

Could certainly have been better, though.

If you want some inspiration that looks GOOD, look around the Base forum for the "Moon base". The builder did a really nice job with interiors, and had windows that looked out into space!

Good luck with your own base!
