I mean, timeline wise, it makes sense for CNC, CDS, and CSV, if we're talking about minimizing workload for PGI. Absence of even one of those three seems oddly arbitrary. However, as I said, if the special coding that goes into CNC and CSV are identical, why not include all the non-big four at the same time? Or, at least, one by one in subsequent patches?

we're invading Huntress n Strana Mechty... in 3057. With Civil War mechs and Guns. I'd say it's a little late to worry about timeline lad. We've apparently been hit by Flashpoint.

I say add all the factions since they aren't buckets anymore.

True, and if I remember my alternate universe future past history lesson correctly, us Nova Cats need some Ice Hellions to beat bloody at the conclusion of Bulldog. At great sacrifice, of course.

Been pushing Russ on Twitter for just that since the announcement about buckets was made. Which is why I was a bit confused to see only Clans No-Va Bat and Star Addled being added.

All right, that's it! I hope for your sake you never need to buy ammo, mech repairs, or quality frozen foods in our area of operations ever again! Until you retract your statements, you are officially on our commercial blacklist*!

Listen, either they get the color right, or they get the animal right. You cannot reasonably expect professionals to get both right, right?

When I play Clams, I play real clams...we don't buy...we take.....




(being Goliath Scorpion "we take" usually is followed by "lots of hardcore drugs"....... but that is neither there nor there)

the point being that unless you plan to expand that to every other clan we have memorabilia for, then you defeat your own argument. Thus, might wanna get the whole one for all thing going. Cuz ya see, why use that argument in an exclusive manner, when you could be using it in such a way as to get all the Goliath Scorpions, Hell Horses, Cloud CObras, Coyotes, etc backing ya?

I mean I know cooperation and deep planning ain't the clan strong suit n all... but I'm just saying laddy buck, I'm jes sayin!

Well, if people wanna be Diamond Sharks let 'em. I just used the Diamond mostly because they do have their gear coming in. So it does makes sense to make the Diamond Sharks from it.

But I gotcha on the Clan Homeworlds chief, that is a part of my next agenda.

well I mean...what color IS a Nova exactly? At least the Pigeons helped out with the whole "Jade' thing... even if the bird brains go the color wrong themselves (and forgot that jade comes in MULITPLE colors.... like..oh...pink?)

I suppose it depends on what sort of star it was before it went nova?

Now, see, if you used your thinking cap for a few seconds, you'd realize that we could help with that last bit. Do you know what happens to all of the... substances* that are confiscated by Clan forces during the invasion? Bought by Clan Diamond Shark at extremely low prices, that's what. We have a massive stock, you just need to ask (and pay our slight mark-up, due to storage, shipping, and employee payment costs) and we can hook you up!

And if you need some new needles, I am sure Clan Nova Cat's requisition department is capable of filling an order post haste. Our delivery system is second to none, and will get it to your address with *laser like precision and speed!

See? Clans can cooperate to mutual financial gain!

yeah but have you ever tried to get a hold of Clan QVC for a refund? Their customer service sucks! "Oh you bought that from Clan Sea Fox! Well we are Clan Diamond Shark now so all Sea Fox goods warranties are now null and void.... oh wait.... you said Diamond Shark? Nope we're the NEW Sea Fox, but thanks to title XI bankruptcy and anti abjuration rules we are now not legally obligated.....

Shark is a fitting image, but they SHOULD be called bloody Clan Sea Lawyer.....
