Re: secret lairs

Something like the lost bunkers.

One big central room with tunnels that lead of to five or six mini-rooms. I would want it about 100 feet underground and completely self supporting.

Re: secret lairs

I want something like the x-man had. You know, the basketball court opens up and he comes out my gunship.

Re: secret lairs

A Thunderbirds style island would be cool.
lol, the Death Star description is pretty cool-
Quote:
The Death Star: If you're thinking going overboard when you build your secret lair, don't half-ass it. Once the scales are tipped, just go ahead and go balls out and pour your limitless funds and manpower into the construction of a base so big, it gets mistaken for a small moon. Add fleets of ships, massive armies, and trash-compactor monster, and a massive planet-destroying weapon, and you've got a base that'll make people **** their pants. Until some insolent farm boy comes and ****s with your ventilation system. Jackass.

Re: secret lairs

Thunderbirds ftw! Which reminds me, check out any Gerry Anderson production. The bases in UFO would definitely qualify here.

Re: secret lairs

In Xanadu did Khubla-Khan
A stately pleasure-dome decree
Where Elph, the sacred river ran,
Trhough caverns, measureless to man
Down to a sunless sea.

That was from memory, so don't giverme a hard time after you Google it and find a tiny mistake.

I'll take a tropical island villa complex with a mag-lev racing sled course through plexiglass tunnels to different domes: low tide, reef, and offshore to about 30M.

I googled "Trhough" and didn't get any hits! What am I doing wrong?
