  About the container:
  

  
  Using a fishing stowaway tackle box and some foam, it's really easy to make a neat little container to hold all your TTRPG stuff. You can stack more or less layers of foam inside divisions to make it easier to reach (the potions have 3 layers) or to make more room for bigger things (the d20s only have 1 layer). Half-divisions hold standard 1-inch base miniatures perfectly (the fairy lady is a metal mini printed off Hero Forge).
  
  The tackle box used is one of the larger sizes Plano has to offer, but if you don't have as much stuff to stash, the Plano Prolatch 3600 or the Plano Prolatch 3500 are smaller options that also work great. These sizes are better for players who want a case like this or DMs with nothing else but a couple dice sets and some minis.
  
  Keep in mind that there will be a lot of foam left over. The 2-3700 only required two or three sheets of foam to triple-stack the entire container, and I got myself a 10-pack. If you need to get rid of the extra foam, getting a couple 3500's for your players is a nice gift, considering they only run about $4 each. I got a four-pack of the 2-3700's since most of my players also DM, so hopefully that uses up the rest of the 10-pack of foam.

I'm going to try to make this easy for you. Here is a setup that will provide you with some basic solar power. Don't expect to run your laptop 24/7 , but this will give you plenty of juice to get a few creature comforts in place and you'd probably be able to keep a business class laptop going all day with it.

• 100w Solar panel, charge controller $167: https://www.amazon.com/HQST-Polycrystalline-Display-Charge-Controller/dp/B01GVVE2WI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1496765420&sr=8-1-spons&keywords=solar+panel+kit&psc=1
  
• small battery box $13: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0000B12YQ/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
  
• 35AH sealed battery to fit in box $64: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00K8E0WAG/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
  
• Power inverter with USB ports $37: https://www.amazon.com/BESTEK-Power-Inverter-Adapter-Charging/dp/B00UFERZKO/ref=pd_sim_86_2?
  
• solar cable connectors $8: https://www.amazon.com/Sun-YOBA-Pairs-Female-Connectors/dp/B00A8TRKJW/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&qid=1496763777&sr=8-3&keywords=mc4+connector
  
• 100ft of cable to use as needed $30: https://www.amazon.com/Paradise-GL22132-landscape-lighting-protected/dp/B00378K8XG/ref=sr_1_6?ie=UTF8&qid=1496763822&sr=8-6&keywords=low%2Bvoltage%2Bcable&th=1
  
  Total cost is under $400
  
  
• Find a conveniently hidden and inconspicuous place to hide the battery and charge controller. Mount them both securely. Make sure you still have access to this space as needed to monitor power.
  
• Run a line from the battery terminals to the battery ports on the charge controller.
  
• Mount the solar panel to the roof using the provided brackets. Make sure you seal that shit up to avoid springing leaks. Run the power from the solar panel to your inverter and hook up the cable to the solar ports on the charge controller. Seal that shit too.
  
• Mount the power inverter wherever you find it convenient. Run a line to the charge controller and mount it to the load ports.
  
  Try to avoid leaving exposed metal wiring at your connections and make sure you have all the positives and negatives matched up and you now have solar power.
  
  When putting this together, I opted for decent starter solar panel, charge controller, and battery. I skipped details such as multiple outlets, custom lighting, and vent fans because that will add more complication as you're wiring multiple things. You could always upgrade to those later.
  
  Down the road, depending on your needs you may want to upgrade to a 100AH battery (it's much larger and heavier so keep that in mind), add a 2-3 more of the 100W solar panels, and add a vent fan and LED lighting.
  
  Keep in mind that heating, cooling, and refrigeration will not be viable with this setup. To run a good fridge/freezer setup like this one, you'd need probably 200AH of storage and 300W of solar panels to be safe.
  
  

Here's what we did to store our TI4 in the box. I stole the idea from user bigegg on the bgg forums in this thread--

https://boardgamegeek.com/thread/1885145/storage-solution-box

Some of his details are incorrect and he has no references for what he actually used or bought, so that's what I'm doing here.

Ground force tokens, trade good tokens, and other misc things go in one of these: (EDIT: we clipped off the little hanger thing on the end because it made the box just barely not fit) https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000E39T4Q/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Action card deck and Agenda deck each gets one of these https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002TT3KW/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Seventeen of these for the race tokens and cards, one for the planet deck, and one for the objective deck, for a total of nineteen:
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0002TT3KM/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Lastly, these six boxes are for the ships and the colored cards--the tech decks and promissory notes: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00K2DREPO/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o03_s01?ie=UTF8&psc=1

Everything all together was around $50.

We cut the planet tray out of the rest of the tray with a box knife, and we put the strategy cards atop one of the stacks of planets. The victory track we ended up moving to the top of the race boxes so it would lay flat. Other than that, the books and stuff sit on top of everything, and the box closes up no problem. It's considerably heavier than before due to all the added plastic, of course, but it's looking like cleanup and set up will be much easier with this method because all anybody will need to grab is their color box and their race box. Hope this helps!

Edit: Ah also forgot to mention--we sleeved everything in these. They are thinner than the FFG ones and therefore fit in our plastic cases:
https://www.amazon.com/Mayday-Games-Sleeves-41x63mm-sleeves/dp/B06XZGN51N/ref=sr_1_4?ie=UTF8&qid=1511979051&sr=8-4&keywords=mini+card+sleeves

Never tried but I bet the clear plastic organizers for fishing lures would work great.
Edit: like this http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B000E39T4Q/ref=mp_s_a_1_2?qid=1427844199&sr=8-2&keywords=Plano

This is what I use for pretty much all my FFG games. It doesn't look like the image on the page, if you scroll down to the first review (where they're storing 7 Wonders tokens in it), it looks like that. It's great for Legion because one of the wide sections without any dividers in it holds the movement tools and the four range ruler pieces, while all the tokens fit in the other two rows easily.

Found an Instep jogging stroller at the thrift store for like 30 bucks and loaded up on stuff from amazon. Unhooked and cut the baby sunshade and seatbelt then mounted some things on it.

Amazon has these gun holders: Maggift Grip Rhino Holder,Mount Rifle Gun Rack (V Shape) https://www.amazon.com/dp/B074FXLP42/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_sytaAb05BCQK7

I bought a couple of those so I could have 4 Guns at a time on my cart.

Then you can’t go wrong with one of these: ROBOCUP 12 Colors, Best Cup Holder for Drinks, Fishing Rod/Pole, Boat, Beach Chair/Golf Cart/Wheelchair/Walker/Drum Sticks/Microphone Stand https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0065MYZGW/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_PztaAbMX4NV26

Still folds in half to fit in the car too. Was a good find.

I have that chair, and I bought this cup holder
to go with it. Seems to work fairly well, but there's a couple things to note:

Firstly, I had to replace the chair. One of the bolts came out and it took a little bit of doing to get it replaced (it was just outside the 30 day return period. I called Amazon directly saying, "hey, look, I know this is just outside warranty but here's the deal..." and was able to convince them.) This suggests that build quality isn't great, but it's only a single example and the replacement (have had for less than a month now) does not seem to be repeating the issue. Yet.

Second, the cup holder: be careful where and how you attach it. Because of the way the chair folds, you have to attach it low on the legs to avoid interfering with the chair closing, risking damage to the chair or the cup holder, depending. It's a great cup holder, attaches easily and securely and holds up to two large cups (or fishing poles ;) ) with no issues, it's just important to be aware of where it's attached. It does rest at an angle, (because the legs on the chair are angled) which isn't an issue for me as I just have to leave a small amount of space in the cups I'm placing inside, but may be an issue for some people.

Most of my suggestions are from other Reddit posts on here or BGG.

Do yourself a favor and buy an accordion/file folder for the map pieces, ideally with at least 13 pockets for map pieces A-M. That way you do not need to Tetris the pieces back in the box. Saves a lot of time.

I use this Plano box for commonly used small pieces.

And this one for the environment and monster holders.

Smaller monsters will fit in a tray like this one but not the larger mobs (or ones with ten of them), so you would either need to baggy those mobs anyway or cut space in the included foamcore packaging (there are some good examples in other threads).

Also YMMV, but we keep "trashed" cards in a separate ziploc bag rather than actually destroying them.

Edit Note: Using all of the methods described above, I can fit everything from the 1st edition in the box except the file folder.

Seriously, though, $450?

I'm at $220, mostly for my nice portable battery, and I don't have to take the cooler everywhere.

I got the 3500 from amazon here: Plano 23500-00 Size Stowaway with Adjustable Dividers https://www.amazon.com/dp/B000E39T4Q/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_5jBTybCG28CN8

As for the 3600, I got it from my local Walmart in the fishing section. I checked amazon quickly and didn't spot the one I have on there. Sorry couldn't be more help!

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000E39T4Q/ will hold all the tech squares, and can be passed around the table as needed.

My Scenario & Encounter cards are sleeved in a BCW Deckbox. I also have a Dual Deckbox that I can hold the 3 pre-built core decks in. Tokens are held in a Plano 3500

I live in an apartment and my neighbors rigged their 2 kayaks and 2 SUPs to hang on an empty wall right within their 1 bedroom unit. Maybe you can find a rack and mount it to a blank wall or find a rope configuration? https://www.amazon.com/Sea-to-Summit-Aqua-Slings/dp/B00C5JH2L4

EDIT: there's some DIYs on pinterest for this that you might wanna look at :)

I use a lowepro camera case large enough to hold the camera housing a box similar to this for all my parts. I have one large enough to hold all my junk, even my mini tripod and cords. When I'm lazy I'll just attach my suction cup mount.

I picked up this plano for it, fits all the workers + gears + citizens. I leave the goods in a baggie so I can just dump them on the map randomly, and left the buildings together with the round tracker tiles in a baggie. I should note I use the cardboard gears and citizens, I don't like the plain wooden ones for those.
