Overview:
The Nova Cat II is effectively an upgrade of the original design featuring
Laser Reflective Armour otherwiise the Nova Cat II is very similar to the
original design.
Capabilities:
The Nova Cat II can match the original Nova Cat for tonnage and speed and
mounts thirteen and a half tons of Reflective armour increasing the Mech's
defences against energy weapons while making the Mech more vulnerable to
physical attacks and falls.
Most of the Nova Cat II configurations follow the original Mech's. This is not
due to the Nova Cat engineers being lazy or lacking in ideas instead it is
because this Mech is intended on replacing Nova Cat OmniMechs in the front-line
galaxies allowing the original Mech to serve in second-line units.
The Nova Cat II uses advanced weaponry in just about all configurations but it
forgoes the use of physical weapons seen in other Clan's front-line Mechs. Like
the original design if the pilot does not use staggered fire it will struggle with
heat build up.
Deployment:
The first Nova Cat II's were deployed in Clan Nova Cat's front-line Galaxies.
The OmniMech recieved its Combat debut in 3100 during a raid against Tabayama
in the Draconis Combine. Both do extremely well in the battle although one
does suffer heavy damage from a sword attack.
A year after its combat debut Clan Snow Raven won the Nova Cat II in a Trial of
Possession this included examples of the Mech and the right to manufacture more.
