Trebuchet Posted February 3, 2008 Report Share Posted February 3, 2008 Re: Let's make a superhero base auditions (Topside description) I still think the abandoned mall idea is the best. Lots of floorspace. Crates of left over merchandise. Oddly shaped stores, no practical subdivisions that could be called living space. Lots and lots of places to hide. Fountains constantly in need of repair. Bathrooms crammed into weirdly inaccessible corners. The heroes bought the mall base because it was (a) cheap ( located above the forgotten Golden Age hero base. Well, a mall base also offers the advantage of lots of empty surrounding area for security, landscaping, and vehicles. Plus (I don't really know if this is a plus or a minus) it's more likely to be located in the suburbs than at the city center. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DusterBoy Posted February 5, 2008 Report Share Posted February 5, 2008 Re: Let's make a superhero base auditions (Topside description) Okay, if this thread is still running . . . Quick and (not that) dirty: the location is Canary Wharf, London. You've got a big, sprawling four-storey Norman Foster-designed building done in concrete, glass and steel so it looks good. It should look like a normal office building but it's built on the "iceberg principle" - there are more floors underground than there are aboveground. The building's power plant is in the bottom basement.The team's ground vehicle is in the underground car park as is the hanger for the team's aircraft (a tilt rotor or something that looks like a USAF/Area 51 "black project"). There is a lift to the roof which has a two-part sliding door to allow egress. There is no hard-core security, or armed guards, but it is EMP-hardened, the walls and windows are armoured and there is a sophisticated air-filtration system. What d'you think?
