This is the brochure for my base. Sorry there are no pictures, something went wrong.

Lunar Accomadations

Kirkham Mining Co. In the eastern plains of the Retoria region of the Moon, there one was a highly succesful mining company. This shut down due to lack of exolunar fuel and became abandoned. The great grandson of Herschel Kirkham (the founder of Kirkham Mining Co.), Graham Kirkham decided to renovate the derelict building and open it as Kirkham Emerald Mine Co. because of the emeralds Graham found in the mines. He decided to sell the building on with some well-formed mines. Now is your chance to buy it.

The part of the build that is built above ground is built on exolunar ice, hydrogen sulphide. If the interior of the building gets too hot, the ice will melt causing the building to collapse. Though, the main bit of the building is actually underground. There are seventeen rooms. Four bedrooms (each with bathroom next or near to), a kitchen, a lookout room, a dining room, two parlours, a hall, a spare room, a mine room and three mines.

Bedrooms The four bedrooms are all the same. The underground ones all have a refined titanium bedstand and an en-suite pit toilet. They are all well-lit and dark when sleep is needed. The above ground bedroom (for guests who are claustrophobic) is slightly smaller and has a refined aluminium bedstand. You also have to go across the hall to get to the toilet since no en-suite is provided. There is also a small, emergency bed room down in the red mine.

Bathrooms The bathrooms are the standard-grade version with a simple pit-toilet. This toilet has a specially adapted spacesuit fitting so you do not need to take your spacesuit off. This is advised since there is no internal heating or personal atmosphere machine.

Parlour This is the first part of the underground base except for the stairs down and the tunnel along. It is quite basic with three bedrooms and the dining room leading off. The only thing in the parlour is the EMCS (Explosive Mob Containment System). This is basically a hole where you can push mobs down and let them blow up without the explosion ruining your base. At the moment, it is closed off but you can drill it open when needed.

Dining Room This room is one of the more basic rooms but the only one with a sealable door and personal atmosphere machine. This is so you can take your spacesuit helmet off and eat normally. All that is inside is a table with enough room for at least four people to eat around. The room perfectly suits the amount of bedrooms.

The Kitchen The kitchen is a simple extension off the mine room. In it is a heated sink (filled with exolunar ice) and a lot of refined titanium cooking surfaces. There is no storage for supplies so you will have get them straight from the nearby Retoria Lunar Grocers which is about a mile from the base. The foods will come in special packages so you can unwrap them and place them in the Food Preparation Unit which scans a special mark on the packaging and cooks the food as specified on the mark. The only setback is that the kitchen is not directly linked to the dining room.

The mine room This is the room where all of the mines start off from. As you come in from the dining room, to your right is the kitchen, to your left is the emergency exit and straight ahead are the yellow and red mines. Both of these mines are on the way to find emeralds and other minerals. That is why you may see bits of the mine branch off. The mine room is quite empty but easy to manouver round.

The lookout post This is a handy room up on top of the above ground part of the base. The walls are lined with windows and so are the walls of the coridoor leading up to it. It can be used for spotting maverick astronauts and mobs threating to injure you. To get to it, you need to go through the unused spare room.

Verdict I think the building has potential. If you add some sealing doors and an industrial atmospheric control system, it would be perfect for someone who doesn't fancy being out in a spacesuit for hours on end. Other than that, the restoration work is amazing and seems like a lovely place. The price I have put it up for is £620,000. Graham deserves it.
