    Pure Alloy

    Alloy as a composition of metall represents that just machines are a part of this faction and their system. And to emphasize that this is the only way everything is supposed to be I put pure as a play on words in front of it as an alloy is by definition never pure.

    One could modify that...like purgatus aeratus
    as I'm not a latin nerd, I'm not sure if that translation is correct.

    Oh and the abbreviation would be P.A. ;)

    Nazis? The Reich? Maybe Reinigen or Reiniger (Clean or cleaner in German). It feels very Nazi-ish to me.

    Ubermaschine? Anyone who speaks German feel free to correct my phrasing if I say something stupid, I'm just googling "word in german" over and over. Also if the reference offends you please know there's no offense meant.

    "The Synchronous Fall"?

    • Synchronous - for its already stated mechanical connotations/organised computing ruthlessness.
    • Fall - Eden, loss and destruction of the Garden/Biologic.
    It also points to the way this faction seem bent on destruction, and so are still falling further into chaos together, despite their ultimate aim for utopia.

    Well, this faction wants a perfect system? AWESOME!

    We will call the leader CLU and the faction The Grid!

    It's perfect!

    In all seriousness, I'm still thinking. I'll get back to you later. ;P

    I really like the Refinery, as it stresses the purification aspect of this faction. Some thing with "dawn" could be cool as well, like Pure Metal Dawn, or Refined Dawn, or Dawn of the Refinery.

    The commander could be something based on stainless steel, like Ragnar the Stainless.

    Exterminus Collective,
    The Slayer Collective,

    Faction name: Industrial Belligerency (from belligerent "to wage war")

    This lore seems like industrial revolution. At that time they seemed to think that machines were perfect and had zero intention to preserve the nature.

    Alternatively the commander may be named Belligerent.

    "The ancient Corps" with commander "Cyroth"

    like:
    If you want to know what my thought on the names are:

    In my opinion ancient fits because they were reactivated and then cleaned the system due to their old program(which obviously is old because the commanders were 'sleepy' for a while). And Corps as indicator for them as they are multiple individuals who want to achieve the same goal so "Legion" could also fit which sounds a bit older.
    The commander's name was a spontaneous idea and i think fits somehow; its something which doesnt sound bad and is not used elsewhere.

    I hope you like my ideas as suggestion and/or inspiratoin.

    I think the faction leader's name should have something to do with Noble Metals (i.e. gold, silver, platinum, etc) while the faction name is instead something to do with revolution
