Description[edit]

Bromley Stables had a reputation as the best pro–Free Worlds League stable on Solaris VII. The warriors attached to this stable were from a variety of the League's polities, but despite this they worked together very well. They had access to two training facilities and a training officer who drove them hard.[1]

The Stable is based in Montenegro.[2]

History[edit]

The Stable was founded in 2981.[2]

Thaddeus Bromley died during a building collapse and the former security chief took up the lead of the stables until the sons of the founder is old enough.

During the Jihad and the WoB invasion of Solaris, many of their skilled MechWarriors declared allegiance to the Word of Blake and turned on their stablemates from within.[3] The stable had dissolved prior to 3077,[4] and most probably during the WoB invasion,[citation needed] but made a comeback during the Dark Age.[5]

Operations[edit]

Bromley Stables is not very kind on MechWarriors leaving the stable, even more if they discover they are changing allegiances. It is said that some MechWarriors that tried that disappear.[6]
