Browsed all 32 pages before posting..... definitely 2nd/3rd/4th on the warning decals/accents.

A lot of people are hoping to see something like this -

Battletech gun/nose art - "Death Ahead", "Big Ben", "Sudden Death" (MW5 Mercs Preview)


These are, of course, homages to both army/air force nose art and to improvised messages painted on bombs. So really, anything that riffs on stuff like:





Or




Google images is a treasure trove.

Some historical examples:
"Have Guns Will Travel"
"Surprise Attack"
"Gotcha!"
"Private Stock"
"Special Delivery"
"This Machine Kills Fascists" (or Clanners/Freebirths/etc)

Also, though it's been posted multiple times it can't be said enough - pinup girls both real and imagined were EVERYWHERE on vintage nose art. Even if PGI is squeamish about having anything too risque, a nod towards this tradition would not go unappreciated.

Mr. yuk from the 70's and 80's. just a thought

The shark's teeth and eyes nose art made famous by the AVG unit in China, better known as the "Flying Tigers". I know there is a black and white version, but you really need a full color version to show against camo patterns.

ComStar/WoB divisions would be nice to add. Would also be great if we were able to pledge loyalty to Comstar/WoB in this era we are in.

We need some FWLM units! There aren't any in the collection at all!

There's a decal for the Knights of the Inner Sphere. Pretty sure there's one other unit as well.

Suggestion: stop putting brightly colored decals on your back.

How is it that we are this far into decals added to the game and yet we are still lacking a Spade and Club decal? We've got a Hear and Diamond Decal but no Club or Spade? What gives?

[SuperFunkTron]

I wanted to find out if we could get a wing decal added, particularly like the one in the link. The helmet is no needed, but I know a certain Winged Hussar that would love it.

Actually the Fed-Com logo can be made using the Starburst, Carbon Symbol, and the Steiner logo.

Spoiler

But on the subject of decals:
