Just a quick and curious thread.

Go pop into the Camo Spec section and tab it to Purple.
In your opinion...

Out of all those colours, which is the most, Marik?

And since we have the thread open, what FWL themed Camo Spec's are you currently running on your 'Mechs?

It's definitely not the C-bills one, that one looks nearly black in-game.

Our unit uses either Prunus (many units use this) or Edo, which is a bit brighter on the field. Pretty sure Edo is the one we officially support in the Desert Rats.

Awesome! Don't suppose you have any in-game screenshots?
Edo looks crazy colourful in the Camo Spec Mech Lab but sure it looks very different in-game, brighter/darker etc ^^

I found Prunus to be the PERFECT colour! So thank you Brynstar! :3
Am currently running my own take on the Camo Scheme, all Prunus except for the small detail which is bright orange, looks fantaaastic on my Hunchbacks and Awesomes <3

The base green and the PCgamer white can make a passable pattern for the Atrean Dragoons. On my Trebuchets, naturally.

The Atrean Dragoons have green and white? Not the Atrean Hussars?

According to Sarna it's the Dragoons colors, the Hussars don't show a mech but their vehicle looked blue and white.

The Atrean Hussars Have Blue on the lower portion of the 'mechs and white on the uppers. The Atrean Dragoons have a light gray base with green accents, panels may be high-lighted in solid green. This is per the FWLM Field Manual.

I like canonical paint schemes very much. Very much.

Things like ssrms that have other ssrms on them.

I use Leon and the primary and secondary colors, then either Crimson or Basic Red the tertiary color on all my mechs.

This is what we 4th Regulan Hussars run but without the green highlights, It has been pretty cheap to acquire as the camo brown and camo tan have both been on sale and the choice of red we leave up to our members; I use a rosewood red. Regulans in the lore would traditionally not use the Marik purple, I find our colours to be more like camo than livery.

Camo Tan
Camo Brown
Maroon
