History
Epsilon Galaxy was created as a defense force for the Hell's Horses' colonies. Initially composed mostly of conventional forces and warriors who had failed their first Trial of Position, Epsilon was only supposed to defend colonies. On Kirin, Beta Cluster challenged two attacking Clan Smoke Jaguar Trinaries and destroyed them. One captured warrior described the fight as trying to punch down a stone wall and the nickname stuck.[1]
Over time, the Galaxy began to receive aging warriors, freeborn troops, and more advanced equipment. These new warriors added a great deal of experience and tenacity to the unit, and by the end of the Golden Century Epsilon had become a full second line Galaxy.[1]
After the Great Refusal the component commands of Epsilon Galaxy were stretched thin covering Horse holdings on Kirin and Tokasha.[2] In 3072 Epsilon Galaxy arrived in the Inner Sphere. It was missing two commands completely and the others were dramatically understrength.[3]
Officers
As of 3059 to 3067 the commanding officer was Galaxy Commander Everett Amirault.[1][4]
Tactics
Experts at defensive and close quarters battle. Uses artillery support.[1]
