The Nova as it currently stands is less competitive than the stormcrow.
part if not all of the problem lies in its lack of variants, especally with missiles.

in battletech cannon two variants come to mind. taken from sama.net

Alt E would have to be worked in to existing configurations probably with a clrm 10 or 15.
Alt D would work as is.
I recommend PGI add one or both of these to the game.
several other mechs could also use more variants as well.

Alt. Config. D Intended as a fire support 'Mech, the D configuration has an LRM-20 launcher for long range direct and indirect fire support and an LB-X Autocannon/5 that allows it to work as a vehicle hunter and in an anti-aircraft role. BV (1.0) = 1,392^[2], BV (2.0) = 1,450^[1][9]
Alt. Config. E The Nova E carries an ATM-12 launcher that can fire missiles for short, medium, and long ranges as its primary weapon. For added close range capability, the 'Mech has three ER Medium Lasers. BV (1.0) = 2,315^[2] (2,340)^[10], BV (2.0) = 2,078^[1][11]
