"Cleanse" for sera

"Endure" for nomads

"Purity" could also work for aeons

really any Clarity/Cleanse Purity/Purge combo works for Sera/Aeon

Cleanse doesnt work for sera
"They will balblabla... and cleanse the galaxy from the non-belivers." - SupCom intro about Aeon

and Endure?
i looked it up and it seems to mean something like "survive" or "last"
dunno if that is very... atacting

i thought nomads were in constant strife and then began fighting for their way of life e.g. autonomy, raiding etc., hence their war effort. "Ravage" might be closer to what you want. I like Endure/Survive though.

purity isn't bad for aeon, if they only sought clarity why still fight the cybrans too?

possible for sera but might be too long:
destroy
control
obliterate
annihilate
eliminate
eradicate
decimate
exterminate
sacrifice
dominate
cleanse

i like purity for aeon (more than clarity, but clarity is fine as well).

for nomads i like endure (although it is NOT a noun, like all the other words...), endurance has 9 letters, though.
ravage is a noun. the only problem is that it is not an "easy" english word (when english is not your mother tongue you hardly ever learn this word. therefore, it does not strike the foreign players as intuitive).
maybe survive is the only good option here (this is an easy english word, but it is not a noun).

purge (for seraphim) is not an easy english word as well, but dominate is an easy english word (but it is not a noun).



short summary:

aeon=purity
nomads=survive
sera=dominate

the problem with purity is that most non-native english people probably wont understand it

and again:

UEF - UNTIE, yeah
Cybran - FREEDOM, yeah!
Aeon - Clarity, I WILL CLEANSE YOUR FACE
Sera - Dominate - BOOOM
Nomads - Surive - Uh what the fork, dont you have better things to do??

what about Doom?

i see it as

UEF - UNITY, join us or be destroyed
Cybran - FREEDOM, let our people go or be destroyed
Aeon - PURITY, convert or be destroyed clarity doesn't usually mean cleanse in english, it usually refers to clear judgment (opposite of a religious zealot)
Sera - something that means erasing/purging/destroying/control
Nomads - Survive/Ravage, some guys from the Nomads project could make the call here

perhaps purity is not so clear in germanic languages; pure/purity is a major latin cognate though
http://www.etymonline.com/index.php?term=purity

alternatively you could go with verbs
unite
liberate
convert/purge/purify/cleanse
destroy/dominate/purge
survive/ravage/endure
