Really, as long as there is an unbroken line of people calling themselves "Clan Nova Cat," it doesn't really matter to me if they're still using Iron Wombs or not. They may be dead as a faction, but as a people they still exist. It's not uncommon in the real world, after all.

Really, as long as there is an unbroken line of people calling themselves "Clan Nova Cat," it doesn't really matter to me if they're still using Iron Wombs or not. They may be dead as a faction, but as a people they still exist. It's not uncommon in the real world, after all.

I'm in a bit of an old school mood - this was what my timeline once was on the forums.  The "FULL" timeline has sort of taken over a bit but I know that some prefer this version so I thought I'd try and update it to 3091.  I'll hopefully update this and finish 3091 in the "FULL" version by the end of the weekend.  Going ahead I'll also try to keep this thread upto date if there's interest in it.

NOTE:  I also noticed an error in the WarShip list of the SLDF - they bought 3 ships in 3088 which I didn't have on my list so I've added them (the crews were on extended training).

3088
3rd January 3088
   Clan Nova Cat's 3rd Watch Cluster raid the Draconis Combine world of Valentina in the Kaznejoy Prefecture.  Posing as merchants they ground on the surface and assault the local defenders.  Using several "Dezgra" BattleMechs, such as the Exterminator and Nighthawk Power Armour, the Nova Cats ambush the Draconis Combine forces and capture several of the Combine manufactured SM1 Tank Destroyers before escaping using their stealth systems.

6th January 3088
   During the burn away from Valentina Nova Cat techs find much of the parts were manufactured on Irece and two of the pilots captured on Valentina admit during interrogation the Combine has a factory there.  Star Colonel Sharon Rosse makes the decision to take her unit to Irece to investigate.

12th January 3088
   The Clan Homeworlds are rocked by a series of nuclear, chemical and biological attacks on the worlds of Paxon, Vinton, New Kent, Tranquil, Ironhold, Atreus and Barcella.  The deathtoll easily exceeds 1 million before the end of one day.

15th January 3088
   A second series of attacks hit Eden and Circe fracturing these worlds fragile teraformed biospheres.  A genetic plague which had been seen in doses across Clan space reduces both worlds to virtual ghost towns in a matter of weeks.  Both worlds are quarantined by order of ilKhan Brett Andrews.

   The Star League's University of Thorin is completed with the facility able to take basic classes on most planned disciplines of study.  Advanced facilities are not expected for more than a year.  The SLDF, Lyran Commonwealth and Isle of Skye are all invited to send cadets to the facility.

20th January 3088
   Despite Isle of Skye protests the world of Thorin is handed over to SLDF control and governorship to the Star League Protectorate although both the Lyrans and Isle of Skye will continue to have access to the University.

21st January 3088
   Unable to find a cure for the plague running through Eden and Circe ilKhan Brett Andrews orders both worlds remaining populations exterminated with orbital bombardment.  WarShips loyal to Clan Steel Viper and the ilKhan bombard the worlds killing millions of Steel Viper, Wolf and Jade Falcon civilians who had been on the worlds.

22nd January 3088
   Following the biological attacks and the bombardment of Clan territories Clan Nova Cat is blamed for the attacks by ilKhan Brett Andrews stating it was bondsmen taken from Tortuga that placed the weapons on Clan soil.  Nova Cats demand a Trial of Refusal which Brett Andrews curtly refuses instead ordering them to face a Trial of Abjuration despite no vote.
   Khan Canin Rosse states he has two Galaxies of troops and three WarShips in system which he plans on defending his Clan with.  Between Clan Wolf and Clan Coyote they are able to delay the Clans long enough for the Nova Cats to finish removing their last equipment from Strana Mechty.
   Shortly after the council forces of Clans Coyote, Steel Viper, Fire Mandrill and Goliath Scorpion attack the Nova Cats.  On Barcella Steel Vipers assault the Nova Cat facilities there to find them completely abandoned, which the Nova Cats had planned for.  The Nova Cats punch through Clan Coyote's force, which is present only for show as a Clan that lives soley in the Homeworlds they need to show they are with the other Clans.
   During the attack the 2nd Watch Cluster of Clan Nova Cat attempts a headhunter attack on ilKhan Brett Andrews but they are cut down to the man.  As the Nova Cats fight on they are slowly surrounded only a desperate rearguard action led by Tau Galaxy and saKhan Ajax Drummond allows the remaining Nova Cats to retreat.

   Khan Nathan Fetladral of the Wolves leads a strike force away from the Bloodhouse to waiting DropShips Ramil Kerensky issues a challenge to all that if they can defeat him then they can claim the Kerensky Bloodheritage.  As his warriors of the 43rd Wolf Assault Cluster fall and Ramil Kerensky's own Dire Wolf falls Kerensky detonates the bloodhouse blowing the entire building to pieces.

Really, as long as there is an unbroken line of people calling themselves "Clan Nova Cat," it doesn't really matter to me if they're still using Iron Wombs or not. They may be dead as a faction, but as a people they still exist. It's not uncommon in the real world, after all.

Really, as long as there is an unbroken line of people calling themselves "Clan Nova Cat," it doesn't really matter to me if they're still using Iron Wombs or not. They may be dead as a faction, but as a people they still exist. It's not uncommon in the real world, after all.
