Clan Nova Cat warriors place a high priority on accuracy and were known to challenge the [[Clan Goliath Scorpion|Goliath Scorpions]] for marksmanship prior to the Nova Cat Abjuration.  Nova Cat Warriors have a marked preference for laser-armed designs, a practice that originated from the Nova Cats perfecting the ER Lasers in use by Clan forces to this day.

Nova Cat commanders prize flexibility in tactical doctrine.  They are quick to adapt to what works, regardless of origin, and are known to study the tactics of their rivals. The Nova Cats particularly prize the 'Hover-Drop' maneuver.  In the 'hover-drop', Nova Cat 'Mechs will deploy from their DropShips while still in the lower atmosphere, removing the need for reentry cocoons. While dangerous, it allows the 'Mechs to fire while descending and minimizes enemy reaction time.  In some cases, Nova Cat 'Mechs are known to disembark at a low level, allowing the DropShip to engage with its own weapon and provide additional cover fire.<ref>''Strategic Operations'', p. 90: "Punitive Strike"</ref>  Nova Cat units have also seen an increase in the use of combined arms tactics, more out of necessity than want.{{when}}{{cn}}

Clan Nova Cat is opportunistic when it comes to Clan honor.  They still adhere to ''zellbrigen'' when possible, but are quick to drop it when refused.

===Ground Forces===
Traditionally, Nova Cat [[Cluster]]s were standardized into one of eight types.  Nova Cat units were focused on 'Mechs, specifically the OmniMech, as the core of their ''touman''. Their forces appeared to favor medium and light designs, and those types continue to be the predominant 'Mech size seen in Nova Cat units. Clan Nova Cat maintained a typical Clan distribution of units, with front-line units using OmniMechs, second-line units using standard BattleMechs, and with vehicles being reserved for ''solahma'' units. The use of armored infantry was unpopular with the Nova Cats, but not forgotten.

Since their Abjuration, heavy losses, combined with a lack of resources, have radically changed the makeup of a Nova Cat Cluster.  The Nova Cats are no longer able to maintain any sort of purity with their forces, with standard BattleMechs, and even vehicles now appearing in front-line formations. It has also seen the increased use of older machines, taken from [[Brian Cache]]s, as well as Inner Sphere designs imported from outside governments.  Nova Cat forces have also started the use of [[ProtoMech]]s and seen an increased focus on armored infantry.{{when}}{{cn}}

The Nova Cats maintained a Naval Tradition that rivals the [[Clan Snow Raven|Snow Ravens]], and while they have never focused as high a priority on [[Warship]]s, maintained one of the larger fleets among the Clans.{{cn}}

{{main|Clan Nova Cat Naval Forces}}
 
The Nova Cats maintained a Naval Tradition that rivals the [[Clan Snow Raven|Snow Ravens]], and while they have never made WarShips as high a priority, they maintained one of the larger fleets among the Clans. The losses due to the [[Trial of Retribution]], the [[Jihad]], and the defection of much of their ''touman'' to the [[Republic of the Sphere]] left them with only a DropShip and Merchant Fleet of [[Carrack]]-class vessels, but no naval assets for offensive use by [[3085]].

The field uniform of the Nova Cats consisted of a charcoal grey, full-length body suit with a banded collar. Glossy black patches, mimicking the pattern of a [[Nova Cat (species)|Nova Cat]]'s fur, form shoulder pads. A thin black line runs down the body and left arm of the uniform.  Footwear consists of a moccasin-like black boot.  While not officially part of the uniform, many Nova Cat warriors also add a leather pouch to carry ''vineers'' from past battles.

==Notes==

The ''[[Luthien (scenario pack)|Luthien]]'' scenario pack lists a Fourth Nova Cat Assault Galaxy and a 183rd Nova Cat Assault Galaxy as being involved in the Battle of Luthien in 3052.  However, these two names are in error as the developers have stated that the book does not use the proper unit naming conventions for Clan Galaxies.  The name of the Galaxies involved on Luthien are unclear at this time.
