Description[edit]
The Red Jians Stables are the fourth-oldest Stable in the BBL. Currently the Stables is ranking fourth in the Branson Brewery League standings boasting two ranked gladiators in the BBL. Rumors say that the Maskirovka keeps a close eye on the stable because of its ties to the St. Ives Commonality though if true, it is not known why the Maskirovka is watching them, as there’s never been any anti-Capellan activity associated with the stable.[1]
History[edit]
The Stable was one of the twelve that returned in 3086 to fight in the BBL.[2]
During the 3086 Championship and after five weeks, the stable was one of the top three in The Stable Championship along the Wyren Claws Stables and the Broken Chains Stables.[3]
At midseason the Stable was ranking third of the global classification. The Broken Chains Stables was leading with a two-point advantage over the Broken Chains Stables and three with them and the Wyren Claws Stables.[4]
Prior to week sixteenth matches, the Wyren Claws were the first Stable of the global classification, one point ahead of the Red Jians.[5]
Two weeks to end the year, the global classification had the Wyren Claws Stables as leading the team in the competition with 153 points, followed by the Broken Chains Stables with 150 points, and the Sun Runners Stables with 147 points. The Red Jians Stables were fourth with 135 points.
Stablemasters and Owners[edit]
Tiger Leung is the Red Jians stablemaster.[6]
Notable Personnel[edit]
Instructors[edit]
- Stablemaster Tiger Leung also acts as instructor.[7]
- MechWarrior Lo Yen also doubles as instructor.[8]
Yen and Leung believe in hands-on experience, so all of the stable’s MechWarriors spend a lot of time in the cockpits.
Technicians[edit]
The tech staff is the largest one in the BBL (there is a senior tech, two techs and four astechs for each 'Mech, with each team responsible for their 'Mech). All techs go through a two-year training course at Cenotaph Stables, and then come back to the Red Jians for experience. Cenotaph can call on the Jians tech staff if they need help, and with the familiarity of Cenotaph's procedures, there is no need to bring the Jians techs up to speed.[9]
- Che Dewery is a senior Tech in the team and also married to Anna Hung.[10]
MechWarriors[edit]
It is not known how many MechWarriors fight for the Red Jians Stables.

Tactics and Style[edit]
Red Jians stresses maneuvering over firepower. The MechWarriors try to get the best cover in Rankar's Deep to best advantage while denying the same to their opponents. This tactic is not working for all of the MechWarriors, so some changes will be done for next season.[15]
Facilities[edit]
The Jians base is an old estate (in the middle of a refurbishment on the edge of town). Security is tight because of rumors on site being haunted and the site of a treasure. Behind the buildings is an accurate mock-up of Rankar's Deep allowing MechWarriors to test out new tactics in a near real-time environment.[16]
