Bortasqu' canon colors

I'm sorry if this is in the wrong place, but I don't know where this would belong. Would anyone happen to know what colors are canon for the Bortasqu' uniforms? I know the Odyssey one is in the dev blog but as far as I know, we don't have one for the KDF uniform.

    Unlike Starfleet, the Klingon Defense Force seems to just let everyone, or every captain at least, pick their own favorite armor design for their crew, so there doesn't seem to be any official colors or outfits for anyone.

    That's why, for instance, unlike Starfleet races, Nausicaans, Orions, and Gorn all have their own special costume bits.

    If I had to guess, I'd say go with a grey color. That's what they usually wear on the shows.

    Yea... KDF doesn't technically have an established uniform. Its more along the lines of appropriate battle attire.

    The Klingons would appear to emulate a feudal system, what with the Great Houses. Each House basically has its own warriors and fleets, which they pledge to use in defense of the Empire. So, I like to think that each House would probably have its own uniform.

    The Klingon Empire's military attire does have established norms and styles throughout the shows and movies.

    Even STO's KDF NPCs have a certain style if you go by colors. Shades of brown, tan, yellow/gold are the colors you'll see.

    The Klingons in Undiscovered Country had these fabulous red uniforms.

    TNG/DS9/Dominion War era colors were black, grey, and certain ones having brown and khaki.

    So, OP, what I'm saying is... just go whatever the hell you want.

    The KDF has always had standardised uniforms since TOS (obviously excluding ENT)
    TOS / TAS: Gold or purple tunics across the board.
    TMP: Introduction of the standard grey leathers.
    AGT: New brown furs - Korath, and Worf.

    Some individual Klingons had slightly different uniforms (such as Klaa and Vixis, or these two). But over all Klingons have never looked as ridiculously rag-tag as the bunch from STO.

    I think it was silly of Cryptic not to have standardised the KDF into Bortasq uniforms with 9.5.

    Chang and Gorkon did, the others had black or grey.

    Norway and Yeager dammit... I still want my Typhoon and Jupiter though.
    JJ Trek The Kelvin Timeline is just Trek and it's fully canon... get over it. But I still prefer TAR.
