Indeed, need to poke around in the color lab some more. I also added a layer to the photoshop file so that the eye color can be edited, as well. IE: Blue vs Red. I tend to keep all the 'parts' when assembling a signature, so I can reuse or edit easily. While my personal bracket is premade, I could even edit that out so it can slot in anyone else's name - though the colors would be funky for a Kurita branch member.

How do I go about joining Nova Cat? Just an fyi my main reason for wanting to joing is the two words nova (star explosion) and cat(which r awesome) in the same clan name.

I don't think anyone has formally organized the Nova Cat's themselves under the Clan name. So if your mostly drawn to the name, you may have to wait to join the Faction once it's implemented in game and the Clans have been introduced. Just so to be clear, you know when we say Clan Nova Cat we mean a Faction from the story-line, not a gaming Clan. If what your looking for is closer to the conventional gaming Clan you might want to look at Merc corps in the outreach forum.

Devoted Clansmen tend to lean much more towards roleplaying the Clan society as part of how they play and that might not be the experience your looking for (though I suspect once it opens up as a standard faction, just like all of the factions a large amount of it's player-base will just be here to play the game.)

Some of us with loyalties to the Nova Cat faction have organized into a Merc unit by another name, alongside the Kuritain forces, the Nekoryu.

...and our numbers are growing. We have over a binary worth of pilots now.

Hail from Germany to all members of Clan Novacat!

[Robert Devalis]

Old time Nova Cat here! I just signed up Nekoryu-No Seishin.

How are the Nova Cats doing these days?

[LastKhan]

Fellow Nova Cat here. Nice to see others that like the faction as well.

In MWO? Still dropping, still running battles under a merc flag, waiting for the eventual Clan release in 2014. In the BT universe? poorly - Lets just say that Era Report 3145 was extremely unkind to the Cats, and if you like the faction, I recommend you not read it.

Yeah the bits and pieces I got from the wiki was quiet depressing. At least there are the Spirit Cats to push on our blood names.

For you Nova Cat guys, if you use the SnowFall pattern with the right colors, you'll have a pretty decent Alpha Galaxy scheme.

Here a mockup of my version:


It does suffice to resemble the paint scheme itself:

Mmm. Victory over delusion. Ironically, it could make a good Smoke Jaguar color scheme too. :\

[Will9761]

Basically, it was just a little formula I found when I was messing around in camospecs. I used Colbalt, Phoenix Black, and Phoenix Grey. It can also be used for a paint scheme for Clan Ghost Bear's Omega Galaxy (The Raging Bears) if you use any black colors, Hellblau, and Titanium White.

I know what scheme you're referring to, Clan Smoke Jaguar's Omega Galaxy (The Black Cats). All you need is some black and grey with the Snow Fall pattern and you're done.

But honestly, all I can say is screw the Jaguars. Even though I'm IS all the way, I'd rather be a bondsman to Clan Nova Cat rather than those self-righteous, a-holes, called Clan Smoke Jaguar.

Especially since you would be going to work as a honored slave until they will need you no longer. Honor to the Nova Cats! I do not understand totally their attitude toward.. that.. stuff to have visions but they will go in exile in the Inner Sphere like the Wolves-in-Exile, so i respect them

Oh That reminds me, we are in the process of reorganizing the Nova Cats that we have found so far as the 58th Strike Cluster.

[Will9761]

I hope your plan for reorganizing the Nova Cats goes well.

[Pariah Devalis]

Trying. Before, we were structured as a split Kurita/Nova Cat force, but it was designed to be run by two people equally. One of them went poof, the entire load shifted to me, and then I had IRL stuff to deal with. Without leadership the cohesion broke up. That, and we have people waiting for a Clan announcement. That is here now, and now we have 12 or 14 or so players and counting.

I just wonder why there a Clan Nova Cat banner is nowhere to be found (yet?)

[Pariah Devalis]

New website, work in progress. Logo work is still to be done. Officially we are a cluster of the Nova Cats, so we do not actually *need* the Nova Cat logo, but it would help a ton with clarity.
