Voted C. In my opinion convention A sounds too generic, and B a little over the top.

I'm not a huge fan of Extremist, to be honest. It's just a little too in-your-face for my tastes. What if you used Fanatic for the VHF and Radical for the Bomber instead?

(Obviously I do think B in general is a nice name convention.)

B) looks like a neat convention

Obviously, it's eiither B) or nothing. Seems the most fitting to me.

The theme of B seems the better, however the names are from the wrong perspective. Xeno's don't think themselves as terrorists so a Dissident would be a Rebel, a Radical would be a Freedom Fighter and an Extremist would be a Fundamentalist or something like that. A positive spin on the theme.

The perspective is intended, it's meant to reflect the Xenos owning the names people keep calling them, whether to show they don't care or to mock the people that lend it to them, that's up to each person's interpretation.

Sorry for the double-post, but since opinions were split on whether or not to use Fanatic or Extremist, I asked Haste to pick a side of a coin. He picked heads for Fanatic, I flipped, got heads, so Fanatic it is.

I have to go with the majority on this one and agree that option B is by far the best.

However, I also think Mephistoles was in the right when he proposed the change from "Fanatic" to "Extremist" yesterday.

"Extremist" is immensely better than "Fanatic". At least that's just my take on this. It appears the matter is already settled to the contrary, though. Shame.
