I think if we're to throw some ideas around, we might need to know if this is an alien set, or a human set.

That would lay to rest one rumor, at least.

If it's a human set, which I suspect, here's a couple ideas:

- Turbolifts. In the future, there's got to be a better way to travel from floor to floor than stairs. Even if they're non-functional, this is a necessity for any base.

- Landing bay. Something that would be modular enough to build a bay for a couple First Lights to land in, or small enough for just a shuttlecraft or escape pod.

- More variety of bunk options. Higher ranking members wouldn't be sharing a room, so a double bunk is a little out of place. Maybe a bed that can fold down from the wall?

- Bubble-dome habitats in various sizes. You could have a larger dome for more populous areas, or tiny domes for storage of hazardous materials/people. The domes might include quite a bit of transparencies.

- Connecting tunnels, to bridge the domes together. Also built with transparencies. Because a view of red desert never gets old. These should have big, steel bulkheads to seal off areas (like Total Recall).

- Buggies! Something to tool around the planet in, when you don't need to go far enough to take the shuttlecraft. They should be the lunar-lander style, with big, oversized wheels.

- Hydroponics station. This could include a greenhouse, too. Something to produce oxygen for the base. (And something to sabotage, of course!)

- Transporter room, for the Trekkies. It should be fairly easy to plop this into the First Light, too.

- The Omega 13! (Since this may be a bit hard to do in cardstock, maybe start with just the "dumb, spinning fan we see in each episode."

Bufff...If the base have half what Aleph13 as asked I'll be happy (and better if it have double...) ... After all the work put in my space station...now that...Well...mine will be a earth station

well if its mars, you need red land tiles. Flat land, cratered land, how about a great big crater that's twoo feet across?

Ridges and other cool land stuff would be good.

red boulders would be fun
a few leftover mars probes and rovers would be nice to have lying around the landscape

an observation bunker, like the kind garibaldi, franklin and lyta took over in season 4 of Bab5...


A hint of something buried in the sand....

How about various kinds of crystals/monoliths? I know there are the obelisks in Skull Cove, but now we're talking alien stuff here!

Check out my fantasy campaign, Wizard Quest, a world using Wizards of the Coast’s 3.5 DnD system by visiting .

Check out the flash teaser for my sci-fi campaign, , coming Jan 2007. I’ll be using D20 Future for the rules.

Tampa Bay Game Players Forum is now available, .

I'd like it to either have a similar style to FirstLight, or be completely alien.

EDIT: Or both

Science Base? (Asimov themed? Martian Chronicles, Aliens[tm]) ?
Military Base? (Aliens, Doom_Doom III inspired) ?

If you were going to do an Alien theme I'd like to see something thematically like Bungies' original Phoor ships from Marathon (and later borrowed and elaborated on in Halo & Halo2). While I know this is rather monolithic in scale & ambition, the "feel" is more of what I mean.

Some vertical elements would be very nice.

Pall_S, if you decide to include domes in your set this website has a lot of information about domes. The Dome Calculator is very helpfull in the design of a dome. I have used it to build domes of many different sizes.

Galaxy Quest is a riot man! I wore out my copy on VHS before I got the DVD.

So a human base. Hmmm..... I'm still partial to the look of Doom(3) & Alien myself. And it would tie into what I've seen of the Rezolution starter set. But maybe keeping some of your FirstLight style and "Owain Yards" theme. Still a darker palette than FirstLight.

A question, is their an artificial atmospher setup on Mars in the Rez world?

Specific items of interest:

An abandoned mining facility, Habitat, Science center. A surface vehicle or 2 if just for a cover prop. A lading pad. A Med lab, a Rec room(ala The Thing). Computer terminals. Equipment bins.

Ok, so who's gonna be the first one to kitbash the Maiden into a "Martian Chronicles" sand ship?
