The second round of Community Warfare Faction Initiatives are underway.

Clan Smoke Jaguar is tasked with capturing Camlann from House Kurita before the 24-hour deadline, while House Davion will need to contend with the forces of Clan Jade Falcon for control over Pleione.

Is it the first time that one-time unlocks were on sale?

Oh well. Defending against "Clan Davion"!

I'd still want a C-bill sale on IS mechs though...

[Spare Parts Bin]

Wow, wished I had known I fought on Dawn.

[Domenoth]

I might need to pick up a few more copies of the "news at 11 warhorn". We'll see.

[Darth Wololo]

Can anyone enlighten me and explain what are those "one-time patterns"? You can use them only once and on one 'Mech? And if you later on swap the camo for another one, do you lose the former?

[Speedy Plysitkos]

um... no bear ? no money.

[Wildstreak]

So is one-time camo for only one Mech individually?

Rather interesting, my Foxes and a few singles of other Omnis are tired of default.

Yes, everything you have said is correct.

One-shot is put it on once on one specific variant (1 mech only) and it stays there, but you cannot use it on another variant/mech and if you replace it with something else the previous one is gone forever.

It's a good deal if you aren't a fashionista that needs to keep up with the monthly trends.

[Elizander]

Might be silly to ask but how do I know the names of the camo patterns? :/

[T0rmented]

88 IS mechs owned, cannot buy a faction pattern for a single one... can anyone tell me which IS mechs can have house patterns?

Most of the IS faction patterns are limited to Resistance Pack (and King Crab).

I can't seem to find the Kurita one for my Jagermech.

[El Bandito]

So buying the Jade Falcon one-times for my Clan mechs! PGI finally sees the light!

Same here. I wanted to put a Davion on a Battlemaster but can't find it. Only patterns I am seeing in the store at this moment all belong to the Clans.

[Yosharian]

Sorry PGI but 500 MC is far too much for a single colour.

You really need to rethink this colour price model because it's an absolute joke.

I would consider picking up some of these colours if they were maybe a quarter of what they are currently.

The one-shot patterns on the other hand are fairly decent value for money for the effect they have on your mech. However the Inner Sphere patterns are not available on the vast majority of IS mechs so...

[Death Prime]

I really hope you guys allow Clan wolf into these special Events aswell soon. As Terra is ours we should fight PGI for the right to own it!!!

[chewie]

What I'd reallllly like, is the ability to put faction schemes on any of my mechs.

Its ok having Davion on my resistance mechs then changing the colours to those of my choice, but please, please, make them available to normal mechs.

That's my 2p on how to get me to front more cash.

Overwise, no thanks, I'll keep my cash.

[Elizander]

Can't find Kurita camo for Jagermech. Help.

[Elizander]

Jagers and most of IS mechs don't have ANY Faction Camos yet. Only Resistance mechs (those from the Resistance packs), King Crabs and Urbanmechs have it. AFAIK, there haven't been set any deadlines (or anything, really) for when more IS mechs will be adapted to have the Faction camos.

FWIW, you can use the faction colors, just not the camos.

Oh, no wonder. Thanks D:
