Other Clans as well as Clusters and Galaxies. And since Civil War with Jihad following... The Fidelis and Republic of the Sphere.
SLDF Units.
Hell, I'm sure some would even like to see the RotS Units.

Might even be neat to have IS and Clan Faction Rank insignias!

Possible May entry of Clan decals. At least the ones that make sense to have in the IS in the time period, anyways.

From a Nova Cat to the Diamond Sharks out there... might I interest you in a crate of only the finest champagne from the Irece Prefecture? I will even sell it to you for only slightly above (three times the) cost just for the occasion!

I am curious, though. If they are doing Nova Cats, finally, are they doing the original CNC logo, or the SLDF Nova Cat logo? I mean, to be timeline appropriate, it would be the SLDF one. I would be fine with either, but if they gave it the SLDF logo it would be odd being a Nova Cat fighting alongside the other Clans. If they went with the original logo, then it would be odd to still be unaffiliated with the IS powers in this timeline - but... less so considering this is an alternative timeline universe of battletech.

Either way, I will be happy once we have decals.

I think they will go for original CNC. Because if we jumped the timeline why we haven't see Federated Commonwealth decal yet?

Also if they added Clan Sea Fox besides CDS I will be very happy.

I think you should push for it. Why not? Just lean in there are whisper in his ear that the Sea Fox logo needs a return. :D

Clan Decals are in the works, hoping for May release as indicated in the tweetgrabs up there. This set will feature (at least):

Blood Spirit
Burrock
Cloud Cobra
Coyote
Diamond Shark
Fire Mandrill
Goliath Scorpion
Hell's Horses
Ice Hellion
Nova Cat
Snow Raven
Steel Viper

I want us to keep rolling out additional Clan/Merc Decals in the future, but at the moment these are the only ones I can safely guarantee. The artists are at full capacity with other tasks at the moment so I'll be taking care of the Decals listed above when time allows, based heavily on the original designs. If anyone is wondering why these can't be thrown together for April - or why May isn't a full guarantee - it's because the Decals need to be redrawn and iterated a few times to work well with the Decal system.
So making the initial emblem may be fairly straightforward, but it needs to be tested in the Decal system and adjusted a few times over. Testing a Decal on larger 'Mechs with more surface area is pretty easy, but smaller 'Mechs are the real test-case.
I'll do my best to make sure the Decals are as faithful as possible while remaining readable at various sizes.

Here's a peek at the Clan Coyote Decal, still in the iteration phase. Went for an Alpha Galaxy-style pattern for the Adder and paired the Coyote Decal with the Dagger Star to try for an Alpha Galaxy emblem on the leg.

You don't say... With new maps? Designing and skinning vehicles? AWESOME! That's great news! We've been dying for more stuff to do! I'm glad the artists have more noble and ambitious things to do that simply making mechs look pretty!

so how where you guys planning on having these out with the Marauder IIC when you hadn't even started on them till now? Why did you guys roll out over a hundred IS unit decals before expanding the Clan decals beyond 5?

Very nice, and thanks for the quick sneak peek! I didn't honestly expect you would show us something, but I am glad you did!

Meh. At this point, one can stay salty, or move on, and I have enough sodium in my diet as is. *shrug*

And again, because i am not getting tired repeating this: make the badges a player receives available as decals. Should be pretty easy, makes badges somehow useful (owning 28 zillions of badges while only being able to display one at a time ingame/in the forums makes just no sense).

We have a winner here folkes!
