Just noticed that Russ said July 3rd, I hope that was a mistake.

Good news indeed, i have no idea what tags im going to play with but im leaning toward Jade Falcon since i identify with the crusader movement of the clans

Looks like June 3rd patch we will get to select our Clan!

@ElanStein we are making it so you can select clans as your faction on July 3rd patch

Another post where I am not sure I should like it... considering I was the source of it.

Also:

Nikolai Lubkiewicz ‏@HerbuRola 1h

@ElanStein Just the initial 4 from my understanding. Merc Corps Association is one of those landmarks we will be hitting soon towards CW.

Got answers from both. What is this, bizarro land?

Still. Irritated. Guess I am going to remain "lone wolf" for a while then.

Correction June 3rd for selecting of clan factions

July 3rd would be a Thursday... and we know we have a patch June 3rd...

As a member of CGB, I am alright with the 4. Though I agree, as you see via twitter Pariah, haha. Initial reveal of the OmniMech concept art had each in one of the 7 invading Clans camo, aside from the CSJ which had two.

[Pariah Devalis]

Exactly. We had all seven of the invading clans represented in the artwork for the Clan mechs, initially. No offense to any of you jerks, but a Clan Nova Cat warrior carries no banner but our own.

Unless you are Kenku, because I guess he likes the color pink.

Or bardlord, because he is dirty Liao scum, but his chef skills warranted capture as a bondsman. >_>

OMG that's even better, PGI is saving face

[Pariah Devalis]

Still responding to tweets, so I am just asking for clarification from Russ if it will just be the four or more? Wave 4 Operation Revival kicks off in July, 3050. Brings a total of 7 Clans to the Inner Sphere.

I was wondering why you guys don't have a house kurita icon since that's where you eventually end up. Now i know why

And as GI joe stated "Knowing is half the battle"

[Pariah Devalis]

In an alternate universe, CNC ends up with House Kurita, who eventually goes skitzo on our asses as we get written out of existence by terrible authors under dubious conditions. Why should any of us willingly identify ourselves as House Kurita?

[Pariah Devalis]

OK, got two replies from Russ.

1. Big four will be first, but soon after they will look to add other Clans.

2. There will be an official rollback to 3050. We are in 3051 right now, I believe.

Really,I am not sure about the Ghost bears numbers,but I have spoken to some people in other Clans. I am not sure that if given home worlds they would be able to hold them,let alone launch an invasion. I am not trying to be mean,but their numbers are not many. This is why I posed this question last night.

OK, not sure who you talked to but:

1. Sorry to burst you & Pariah's bubble but only the Big Four are officially recognized by PGI as invading the Inner Sphere hence the 4 sections in the Clan thread dedicated to them. If you want to get it will have to be as an auxiliary as I mentioned before.

2. We Ghost Bears have a high number & when I say we, I mean www.ghost-bear-command.com I am under the weather so perhaps Coffinail can help you out with the actual figures. We have new sibkin everyday as well. Add to that, the Germans who I believe have at least a Galaxy.

The other Clans will, if they have not already, give an accounting of themselves.

I am not trying to be mean, but you backed the wrong faction; invasion wise at least.

The Coyotes NEVER take part in Revival. If you were a Steel Viper, Diamond Shark or Nova Cat, I could see it, since they were reserves who got activated later on in the timeline.

EDIT: OK looks like Coffi already answered regarding our size & I see Russ confirmed the Big Four will be launched first & that they will rollback to 3050 in which case, the Steel Vipers & Nova Cats get activated just before November 3051, with the Diamond Sharks as reserves.

Nova Cat carries the vision of Kerensky as well as their own banner. Although Clan Jade Falcon sees the vision of Kerensky with the clarity of the Falcon and we will take Terra as the Ilclan!

[Hawk819]

What I want to know is: how the hell do we select a variant?

Example:

From Daishi Primary to Daishi B. Is there a drop down bar or something ??

[Pariah Devalis]

Just like there is now, I presume. The "variant" is just another chassis as far as the game is concerned, though it only applies that ID to the center torso (and legs?) of the mech. Everything else is replaceable.

[Hawk819]

Yea, but they never said how we can select a variant as of yet. I tweeted Russ and asked him. Hopefully, he'll give an answer on this dilemma.

[Pariah Devalis]

...I do not think you mean what you are saying. Do you mean "how to select the omni pods" to put on our variants? If so, you are right. I can only guess it is an additional tab in the mechlab. If you meant the base chassis itself (Prime Variant, or Bravo, or whatever), it is an entirely separate mech, much like how the Orion comes in several variants that you would normally need to purchase separately.
