See, Vik understands why, should I win the lottery, I will buy some decaying victorian factory, fix the roof and then move into the rusty interior as my new appartment.

I am buying a de-commisioned missile silo in Nevada in a couple years. Gonna turn it into a craft mall. The silo is 9 Stories deep. i figure I put a hobby store of different types on each store and have a WH40K and MtG tournement areas on their own floor.
A Michael's, A HobbyTown, A Hobby Lobby, Maybe get a GW store in it and a RPG/TCG Hobby store too......
Then on the other side of the silo in the three story underground command bunker I will have my home.....
I guess then I will only need a tank....

Right there with you, Vik. I'd much rather run and die tired than hole up and wait for somehting way more horrible. Have you seen the 6th Ed rules for buildings / fortifications? Great at protecting you against small arms and not too bad against some heavy weapons, but get a Flamer stuffed through a firing point? Yeah. Bring lots of BBQ sauce.

Reassessing my original thoughts... I would so completely love to live in one of those! Getting air to the lower levels might be tricky w/o a good ventilation system.

The ventilation system is usually in the lower levels in mst setups. No need to relocate it when it is remodeled into a home. The best ones are the ones that are close enough to the public waste/water and electric systems so that the silo doesn't have to run constantly on tanks and generators....
The problem is the main staircases don't go all the way down, mostly. They only go down about 7 floors and then you have to do ladders or very small narrow stairs designed only for maintenance. makes the usable space sparce WAY downstairs.

Can you imagine a WH40K table built to look like one of these?

Just keep the Pool and the Gym in the lower areas. Then you can take the stairs and get into shape! 
But that would be cool as all get out! My wife would never go for it.
