Description
The Stable is known for his law-abiding attitude. The Stable is based in Cathay.[1]
History
The Stable was formed in 2990.[1]
The stable is known for its good reputation but lost influence because the feud with the Tandrek Stables. The ongoing fighting cost both sides many resources.[2] With the death of Roger Tandrek, the feud grew to a new level during the 3062 Riots where those clashes nearly left both Stables bankrupt.[3] Even in 3067 rarely a month goes by without at least one Zelazni-Tandrek grudge match being fought in the arenas.[4]
Zelazni Stables purchased two Porcupine 'Mechs, becoming the first major stable to put this machine through its paces in real combat. Unfortunately, after a less-than-stellar performance by one during a recent grudge match between Zelazni and Tandrek stables, Victor Zelazni has reportedly started looking for anyone interested in taking the other Porcupine off his hands.[5]
Operations
Unknown.
Stablemaster and owner

Tactics and Style
The warriors of the stable prefer physical attacks to bring their opponent down. That primary fighting style is often why members of the stable's gunnery skills are underestimated. The hatchet is an often used weapons during close combat. [10][4]

Notes
As of 3067, MechWarriors have contracts of 20 percent and 1.400 c-bills for wages.[4]

Rules
Game Rules
The Stable as of 3067 has access to B Rated Equipment.
Zelazni MechWarriors receive a -1 to-hit modifier for all physical attacks and a +1 bonus to all Piloting Skill Rolls.
Warriors from Zelazni can take careful aim with all weapons. In order to execute this maneuver they need to stand still and announce they are going to careful aim rather than make an attack during the Weapons Attack Phase (and they are not forced to say to whom they are aiming). For each consecutive turn of careful aim the MechWarriors gain a -1 to-hit modifier (to a maximum of -3) to all direct-fire weapons mounted in a single location. If while aiming the MechWarriors fails a piloting roll, all the cumulative bonus are lost.[11]
