[SoNE Freebuild] Coffee Tastes Better With Milk

1: Coffee Tastes Better With Milk

2: The Sweet Smell of Flowers

Lord Tyrus sighed. When he received news of his promotion to the Imperial Survey Corps, he expected to be flying around the galaxy in relative luxury, exploring previously undiscovered planets and spreading Imperial law and order to primal civilizations. He did not expect to be hanging around the troopers' canteen, watching 2 soldiers of the supposedly most well trained and efficient army in galactic history to finish their 'lunch', so they could accompany him on messenger duty. He highly doubted that they weren't doing it on purpose, testing their new superior's patience. He also suspected that they were 'hand-me-downs' from a higher ranking officer. At any rate, he was soon to find out that their accuracy with a knife and fork was incredibly good, when compared to their accuracy with a blaster.

He looked around the room at the scout troopers paying for beverages with their galacticards. Then he looked at the menacing, black drinks machine the barman was filling the drinks from. It contrasted starkly with the rest of the brightly coloured room, but fitted in perfectly with the rest of the Star Destroyer's colour scheme.

Apparently, the machine had been discovered by a scout group, tasked with exploring the planets of an unpronounceable solar system. According to the diary found next to the machine, it had been created in the Dark Age of Technology, when there was a galactic shortage of cows and when the citizens of that age had forgotten how bad coffee tasted without milk. The particular man that had built the machine was the only man old enough to remember that coffee had once tasted a lot better with milk than it did without. He spent many years making a machine that could make white coffee. Unfortunately, he had had a heart attack just before he could swallow the first cup of white coffee the galaxy had seen for 100 years. The only reason the crazy device had been pressed into Imperial use was because it could (completely unknown to the creator) make any other beverage in the galaxy, in past, present or future. It had instantly been a favourite among the troops of the Avenger, but it had been kept a secret to everyone else (except Darth Vader, who was partial to a glass of wine from time to time).

The canteen had also been implemented with refill machines, linked directly to the main machine, and the one at table 2 was in very high use indeed. Finally Lord Tyrus had had enough after the 5th burger had found its way into Stormtrooper 27491's mouth and the 9th beer had sloshed its way down trooper 44783's throat. He slipped out the pocket holo from his trouser leg and keyed in for control to make a request for different troops.

But even after 20 minutes of almost silent conversation, he had got nowhere; there were simply no more troops to spare and he had been unlucky. It was up to him to discipline the troops in his command. He sighed again. Maybe he'd get a drink, then go to bed and sort them out tomorrow. He wasn't going to the front for a while, he should probably relax a bit. A simple mission searching for Boba Fett couldn't be to bad, even with fat, drunk troopers, could it?

And a view without 'figs:

I would like this judged please.

Nice build, I like how you designed the drink dispenser, but the red floor doesn't do much for me.

Thanks, although I like the red, it is the colour I have the most 2x2 tiles in.

Thank you! Larry was ALMOST perfect for Imperial barman, though he has a TINY strip of yellow...
