'''Zeta Galaxy''' started as a ''[[solahma]]'' [[Galaxy]] of [[Clan Hell's Horses]] dedicated to hunting down the [[Bandit Caste]]. The Galaxy was known as the ''Wrath from Heaven''. Following the [[Golden Century]] the expansion of the Horses allowed Zeta to acquire better equipment and troops, and so became one of the Hell's Horses offensive second line units. This in turn allowed them to gain some respect among their fellow warriors. Zeta continues to search and destroy Bandit Caste holdings, but they have also blunted several strikes by [[Clan Fire Mandrill]]. Unlike most second line units, Zeta was assigned a permanent [[WarShip]] so it can go on hunting missions.<ref name=FM:CRCp70>''Field Manual: Crusader Clans'', p. 70: "Zeta Galaxy Profile"</ref> Although this warship was reassigned in 3070/1 for the Horses' operations in the Inner Sphere.<ref>''The Wars of Reaving'', pp. 84–85</ref>

During the Wars of Possession that followed the [[Great Refusal]], Zeta was used by the Horses to counterchallenges to Horse territory. During this time they saw action on [[Niles (Clan System)|Niles]], [[Tokasha]], [[Kirin]], [[Hoard]], and [[Strato Domingo]]. Despite the heavy schedule, Zeta suffered few losses.

After the creation of [[Clan Stone Lion]] in [[3075]] during the [[Wars of Reaving]], the Galaxy became part of that Clan's ''[[touman]]''.<ref name=TWoRp146-9> ''The Wars of Reaving'', pp. 146–149</ref> The Galaxy took part in the annihilation of [[Clan Steel Viper]], although they fought mainly on the periphery of the action on [[Circe]] and [[New Kent]] in supporting roles. By the end of the fighting the Galaxy had barely three Clusters of warriors left, although the losses were rapidly replaced by captured Viper matériel.<ref name=Tworp170>''The Wars of Reaving'', p. 170</ref>

Opting to completely sever ties from their Horses past, Zeta Galaxy authorized a completely new paint scheme for their equipment an overall yellow-brown with grey stone-colored accents, which may be marbled or granite-patterned, and the Clan's insignia is prominently displayed on the upper torso or arms of 'Mechs or on the front of vehicles.
