Brief Description

Zeta Galaxy is a Clan Ice Hellion garrison formation charged with protecting facilities on Hector.[1]

History

Formed prior to 2959, Zeta Galaxy earned its reputation and nickname by protecting military and civilian facilities on the Ice Hellion homeworld, a fact which lessens the blow when aging warriors are assigned to the unit.

In 3070 the Galaxy move to Nouveaux Paris, arriving in September. Here it began preparations for the Hellion assault on the Inner Sphere, along with Alpha Galaxy, Beta Galaxy, and Delta Galaxy. By October all the forces were in place for the operation to commence.[2]

The Galaxy along with Beta formed the Hellion secondary force under saKhan Conner Rood tasked with securing the Periphery border. The force captured Anywhere, Somerset, Erewhon, Bone Norman, and Lackhove.[3]


Parts of the Galaxy destroyed on Gotterdammerung by Clan Hell's Horses in December 3071.[4]

3rd Hector Cavaliers retreating from Gotterdammerung is the last mention of any unit from this galaxy.[5]


Officers

As of 3059 the Commanding Officer was Galaxy Commander Curtis. A Trueborn who never earned a Bloodname, only his devotion to the Clan has prevented him from ending his life out of shame.[6]

Tactics

With its equipment either out-of-date or dilapidated by Clan standards, Zeta employs hit-and-run and harassment tactics in order to survive.
