This is a simple idea for a Batcave project that comes together fast, is easy to do, and has a lot of potential for other projects. It's basically just some cardboard boxes and cross-lap joints.

Na na na na na na na na …

That is a very good idea for a bat cave. I need to build something similar for Infinity.

Actually, 2 Batpoles, with nametags on them.

You're gonna need more lower space for the Batmobile, Batboat, BatChopper and the BatJet.

And someplace to dance the Batusi!

Turntable, do not forget the Batmobile's turntable…

Seperate facilities for Batgirl's visits?

That is a really cool idea. Good luck!

First: Thanks, all! It sounds like a lot of people will be using this technique for variants and various other sites … have fun!

Batpole: Pretty much goes with stairs, etc. I will put a drinking straw on a washer base, but not affix it. That allows the scenario to drive where the up/down access is.

Batusi: That was at a disco, not the Batcave.

Facilities: Wayne Manor suffers from Wargame Architect Syndrome (TM), that is the bathrooms either (1) don't exist, or (2) are poorly placed. In the above layout, there is no guest bathroom; the only access is through the bedroom.

Batmobile, etc.: Got a spot for the Batmobile, but it doesn't turn. I have noticed that the other about 200 vehicles that Batman has only exist when he needs to use them and don't take up space in the Batcave where not important for the current story arc. I trying to work out how to do that with my minis …

The clip I saw it was in King Tut's lair!

Besides he's got to have someplace to "practice his moves". grin

Ah, yes, I had forgot about that one. And I do have a secret room within the secret lair. If you're going to practice dancing by yourself, that's the best place to be!

Definitely. Think of the embarrassment if Robin walked in mid-move…

I just finished watching Season 1 on the new DVD's. Yup, Batusis twice. Will Batman Batusi in Season 2 or 3? Stay tuned….

I look forward to seeing how this turns out with a little paint. It has a lot of potential. I love the dimensionality of the gaming area that it creates. Lots of cover. Not many long fields of fire. Great idea. Now all you need is some "Wham!" and "Splat!" markers.
