==Description==
The unit has risen since its founding in [[3055]] to prominence. Per internal policy [[Cino Vincenti]] styled his [[MechWarrior (pilot)|MechWarriors]] after the ancient Terran "cowboys", and the ten-gallons hats the stable members don for press conferences have made them a distinct and instantly recognizable group.<ref name=SRp12>''Solaris The Reaches'', p. 12 - "Hombres Stable"</ref>
The Stable is based in [[Roland Fields]].<ref name=RS3055U>''Record Sheets: 3055 Upgrade'', p. 19 "STABLE-SPECIFIC RULES"</ref>

==History==
Formed in [[3055]]<ref name=RS3055U/> the stables has grown through a series of wins in the reaches. Just after 6 months, the stable saw its ranking upgraded from D to C. Vincenti scored a publicity coup soon after when himself and several MechWarriors got into a barroom brawl with [[Dick Benson]] and a handful of the [[Vampires Stables|Vampires]] sparking a feud between the two stables. A match was scheduled with the '''Vampires''' and their home Arena in which the '''Hombres''' defeated their rival stable. A rematch was asked but no answer was given. In the meantime, and riding on their newfound fame, a tag-team match in [[The Scrapyard]] against [[Wraiths Stables]] has already been scheduled.<ref name=SRp12/>

The Hombres Stables suffered heavy losses during the [[Word of Blake]] [[Operation SHOWTIME|occupation of Solaris]] in the early stages of the [[Jihad]], after members of the Renegades joined a major resistance cell made of the [[The Pentastars|Pentastars Gang]] and [[Renegades Cooperative]] out in Nowhere, the Blakists ultimately eliminating the cell.<ref name=JSTBD-25>''Jihad Secrets: The Blake Documents'', p. 25 "Operation: Showtime - Occupied Solaris"</ref>
