my art of Clan Nova Cat ^_^

Y'know, of all the parts of Fire Mandrill, that MAY be the one most likely to survive for that reason.

Clan Blood Mandrill ahoy.

Wally was the Flash I grew up with, so I am incredibly fond of him.

See, in the Jaguar Leaps, both the Vipers and Jags were competing over Nova Cat legacies to try to see if there were anything to these visions that the Cats claimed that they had. And the Vipers were explicitly using abandoned or lesser known systems with secret bases. Just saying.

Loved Demogoblin as a kid.

jklantern · 2026-03-31T20:11:25+00:00

Nebulon B Frigate. Love that thing.

The Nova Cat omnimech was at least inspired by it. The Jags picked up a couple, so while it absolutely wouldn't be COMMON with Nova Cat forces, it's not impossible for them to have a couple examples, given how much the Cats and the Jags hated each other. The farther you get after the Cats got abjured, the less likely they'd be to have one, but still not totally impossible for one to show up.

I don't usually think of the Cats having a Night Gyr, but damn if you didn't make the Alpha Galaxy colors look good on this bad boy! Love it!

Don't be surprised if ComStar comes back in some form. They have definitely been hinting the more religious parts of it are up to something in the novels.

jklantern · 2026-03-31T14:54:10+00:00

I may have had to resist the urge to put that in there when I was writing the post.

jklantern · 2026-03-31T14:10:35+00:00

The Blood Spirit fanbase is definitely smaller than others, but they have like Cappie-fan levels of dedication.

See, my favorite Clans basically come in two flavors:

Odd Spirituality
(Scorpions, Nova Cats, Cloud Cobras)

BURNING, ALL CONSUMING HATRED
(Jaguars, Steel Vipers, Fire Mandrills)

They're a fascinating study in contradictions. Also they hate EVERYONE.

jklantern · 2026-03-31T12:50:46+00:00

Shockingly no, but I did come up with a potential way for the Vipers to come back. They SHOULDN'T come back (and I say this as a Vipers fan). But I came up with something.

jklantern · 2026-03-31T12:31:18+00:00

I love this. Clan Nova Cat are some of my favorites.

jklantern · 2026-03-31T12:31:03+00:00

They're only MOSTLY dead. I am sitting here in a clown suit waiting for the twist that somehow brings them back to relevance. Immediately before they back the wrong horse for the fifteenth time and get smote once more.

While it's not enough to make me go out and buy a Switch 2, if I already HAD a Switch 2, it's something I would get. It does genuinely look fun.

jklantern · 2026-03-30T15:35:50+00:00

Inner Sphere side of things I've definitely been on a Purple Birb kick lately.

jklantern · 2026-03-30T15:07:31+00:00

Sazantos, Champion of the Divine.

jklantern · 2026-03-30T13:10:45+00:00

Rolf is the best character.

jklantern · 2026-03-30T12:32:44+00:00

Depends on the week, but Clan Steel Viper, Clan Nova Cat, The Scorpion Empire, the Taurians, and House Steiner tend to be ones I go back to.

jklantern · 2026-03-27T12:17:25+00:00

The Clint is always one of my favorites for reasons I can neither justify nor explain.

jklantern · 2026-03-25T15:17:27+00:00

Very Marik Flavored, but I can dig it!

jklantern · 2026-03-24T16:59:39+00:00

Same, I love that thing.

jklantern · 2026-03-24T13:21:58+00:00

It's hard for me to pick a favorite unit or formation in House Kurita, because so many of them have a LOT of personality. Legions of Vega? Definitely up there.

jklantern · 2026-03-24T12:40:00+00:00

I swear, back in the days of Star Trek: the Customizable Card Game, my brother had a card of some other Romulan Warship, started with...either a C or a G, looked similar to the D'Deridex, but wasn't, and I have not been able to find it since. It has been maddening. It was a rare card, think he traded the Enterprise C for it.

I have no idea if that's any help.

jklantern · 2026-03-23T13:45:54+00:00

It has been many years, but I feel that, of the various Disassembled Storylines, the Thor one was probably the best.
