Blaggards, Rogues (as said before), Bucaneers, Vipers, Cobras (I'm not sure what's most applicable to mercenaries; the former 3 are more pirate-orientated).
- a name for a company which produces weapons, located in Antares (Antarms?)
Independent Defense Corp (IDC), Kronos Arms Manufacturing (KAM), Antares Defense Systems (ADS)
- two names for a space mining companies located in Vega. (Vega Mining, Mega Mining?)
Vega Resource Engineering (VRE), Resource Acquisition Services Ltd, VI Mining (or any initials; i.e. VI = Vega Industrial), Vega Geological Services (VGS), Independent Mining Corp. (very simple name)
- two names for companies that produces machinery for mining/manufacturing, located in Vega. (MaFI Corp. (Machines for Industries), Vega Robotics?)
Vega Industrial Manufacturing (VIM), Vega Industrial Services (as an alternative to the former), um... not sure on this one  


NB: doesn't need to have a name with the location IMO; think of how few big companies (national) have their location as part of the name

1: Give the Mercenary company a name, like say Astral Escort and Security, and then call them AES Alpha, AES Beta, AES Gamma.  Mercs tend to be paramilitary and as such will use military-sounding designations.

I like the names you all have posted.

Forget the name of the systems, you are right. Its very extrange to see the name of the country in today's companies' names.

But not necessarily the state.  Especially with "dirty" roles (mining, industry) I still see a number of firms operating as "Carolina" whatever.  It probably varies from place to place, but it's not as uncommon as you might think.

I need good names for my campaign
These names are the ones i'll probably use for the campaign:

Mercenary Squadron:
SEA (Security and Escort Agency.)
Its counterpart (a drug dealing/arms smuggling organization): <-- any idea for another name (It must have either 'Stones' or 'Stone' in it)
StoC (Stone Cartel)
Weapon Industry:
ADS (Antares Defense Systems)
Mining Companies:
STX Exploration
MRA (Mineral Refinement and Adquisition Corporation)
Robotics Industries:
RAD or RADCo (Robotics Assembly and Distribution Corporation)
BAc or BA (Baranec Acquisitions)


Any suggestion? Which abbreviation do you preffer?

Shattered Stones Cartel?

I prefer RAD and BA to the RADCo and BAc abbreviations.

Shattered Stones Cartel? i don't like it...
The 'Stone' comes from the surname of its founder and leader: Martin Stone.

The Stone Empire?

or...i might change the name and surname of its leader...what do you think?

Cartel implies the wrong form of orgainzation.  If it's just a mining corporation, the best (or worst, depending on how you look at it) would be "Stone Mining".  I do, however, see the obvious sillyness in that name, so perhaps the best course of action would be to change the surname or drop it alltogether.

WTF?

The Stones Empire / Cartel is a criminal organization with legal cover-ups.

The mining company is completely different thing

Willy has never been banned. Do you happen to miss him with percenipicek?

Actually I remember him being banned too. I had to look up the thread it happened on a little while back.

It's possible I'm confusing you with percenipicek but it seems odd that both me and kie remember it happening so vividly.

It was in fact the reason why I changed the FA assignment for your mission.

Odd. :wtf:

willy_principal went by the name revomode on Game Warden for a bit, then some guy named revomode came here and then asked to be banned.

Coincidence?

Don't accuse him without any proof.
