[SoNE Freebuild] They never saw it coming...

[Commander Smith]

Briefing Room, Rogue Clone Base, Nar Eurbrikka:

Clone Commander: "Troops, while doing some recon work, I found the cannon the Imperials are using to shell our main base. It's manned by recruits and not our brothers, so take no prisoners."

Clone Scout: "Sir, can I take my new sniper rifle? Pleeease?"

Commander: "Sure, but remember, it'll be heavy."

Scout: "Yay!"

(Stormtrooper to himself, listening): "I'd better get back to base and tell the commander. That's an important artillery piece!"

Landing Pad, Rogue base:

Commander: "Get a move on there, Tix!"

Scout (Tix): "This sniper rifle is...[grunt]...heavy!"

Commander: "Told you. Now get in the RIG!" [Nomenclature: RIG, Rapid Insertion Gunship, my own invention]

Tix: "Sure...Hey! Why do you get the speeder bike?"

Commander: "Because, well, I'm the commander and I assign vehicles. Get in the ship!"

Meanwhile...

Forest between Rogue base and Imperial Outpost

Stormtrooper: "Ouch! Oohh..myanklemyanklemyankle!!! Darned planet! Now I can't move, and our gun will be destroyed. Arghh!!"

Imperial Outpost:

Commander Smith: "Eat fried artillery cannon, stormies!"

[Cue loud explosion]

Smith: "Hey! There's one less dead stormtrooper than there should be! Let's keep a sharp eye out on the way back to base."

Forest between Rogue base and Imperial Outpost

Smith: "Here he is...[in a loud voice] You! Are you a clone or a recruit!"

Stormtrooper: "Just a clone."

Smith: "How would you like to have a life where you get to shoot the guys who enslaved you, drive huge gunships, and make those worthless recruits eat lasers?"

Stormtrooper: "Really? Awesome!!"

Smith: "I'm Commander Smith. Let's get you some new armor."

To be continued...

The speeder is an Aratech Industries LRS-14 (non-canon). It does have steering vanes; the grooves in the wheel piece act as them. The steering rod doubles as a Mark IV armor-piercing laser cannon, which gets one shot before it needs to recharge.

Thanks, and as always, please comment!

You make pretty nice vehicles, and your clone army is quite impressive, yet freebuilds aren't just about showing one or two pictures of what you built, more of building something impressive (which you've done a few time), and telling the story of your character, and making new stories, schemes, and builds as he/she goes along. And I don't quite understand how these clones have anything to do with the Rebellion, unless they're Rebels in disguise or rogues, because most clones turned Imperial once Order 66 happened. You make nice builds, yet this doesn't seem to quite be a freebuild to me yet with no story. Keep building!

Don't worry, more is definitely on the way, it's just bedtime!

P.S. See my backstory freebuild for more information on the clones. They deserted, refusing to comply with Order 66.

I will be sure to look at that to better understand, however I still think there needs to be more of a story with these freebuilds. Great vehicles, though.

[James Wellington]

Now I see you've edited it. You've done a great job in now telling the story and what they're doing. One thing it'd think about is to try to put a bit more detail into the Rogue Clone base, other than that, I'd say it's really good. I actually really like your speeders. You've made a few now, I think, and all of them look quite nice. Keep up the good work!

[Commander Smith]

Thanks! I think my specialty is speeders and walkers, since they don't require a lot of planning or bricks. I just build what I want!

[Kodan Black]

The added pictures and story are a HUGE improvement. I like the RIG and speeder bikes! Too bad you build for the wrong team.

[Commander Smith]

Well, Kodan, my next story might be having the Rebels stealing a new Imperial walker....maybe even yours!
