Also been thinking of creating a new Grox faction, since, well, everybody has one. I have not thought of a name yet (they will not be a Latin letter Collective race). Here is the rundown:

Not really sure if they came from the Meta-Empire or pre-ACC Mirus Grox, but what I do know is that they were a war party that got sucked into a wormhole and stranded with little resources to keep them alive. They ended up absorbing all their servant races, Conqrix, and Morphlings into themselves, taking on traits of them.

Now, though they do not assimilate, they are now half-machine, half-shapeshifter. Their machine parts can merge with other inorganic stuff to form new weapons and tech (like growing a rocket launcher), and their organic bodies are like the Thing on speed (really, really fast shapeshifting abilities). They cannot adapt to every weapon used against them, but they move fast and can pickup any piece of tech on the battlefield.

This is just a brainstormed idea; I have no idea whose side they will be on, what their names will be, or if I will even use them.
