>The Blades of Dawn Known for their siege-breaking, famously on the day before the besieged were to surrender
>The 4 Strikes Each new recruit must learn the martial art of this company, which includes the eponymous secret technique, which guarantees the death of the victim
>The Crown Takers So named as they work exclusively for revolutionaries, though the method to contact them is unknown
>The Red Gorgons Hailing originally from Mars, each member is subjected to ritual disfigurement upon recruitment
it's unlikely you'll come up with something better than these guys
Jace Cooper
The Bad Weather Balloons. They are called so because their favorite fighting tactic is to inflate themselves with Helium, Float over their target, and harrass them with a bombardment of falling hand-grenades.

They have a clause in every contract that enables to eat their killed enemies' hearts. >Crimson Spiders Called so for their use of nets, spears and poison. Quite fearsome in cities and forests, pretty much useless in open field. >Brass Charms Called so for their usage of brass amulets with their names and names of their homelands engraved on them. >Stone Knuckles Make great use of stone golems, in fact, 90% of the company are golems, the rest are auxillaries i.e. medics, snipers, scouts and golemomancers. >Storm Battleaxes Specialize on shock operations and use magic\hi-tech battleaxes that can charge up electricity via friction. Really, really hate it when these battleaxes fall into wrong hands, which means pretty much anyone outside of the group.

sounds like a task for the dwarf fortress group name generator

Luis Carter
>The Enforcers specialise in non-lethal combat and never take assignments that would require them to kill someone they use brass knuckles and short clubs to knock their enemies out or just "teach them a lesson" if that was their task
Jonathan Bell
> The Silencers You call them when you want absolutely everything dead, leaving only silence.
Anthony Thompson

Can be Corps if no mechs are involved. They're Italian. Raven Republic >they take the name Raven from mercenaries of old Vanaheim Elite >definitely Norse mythology
Well, those are basically all the names I can remember. Look up videos about Armored Core V and Verdict Day, especially team fights. You'll see a lot of mercenary company names pop up. And yes, all of those were actual teams in those two games. Even the spoilered one. Here, have our emblem.
Henry White
Led by Tyberos the Red.

Puritans came to identify their political struggle against Charles with that of the ancient Hebrews against Pharaoh or the King of Babylon. Because they identified so strongly with ancient Israel, they chose overwhelmingly to identify with the Old Testament, which of course is the Hebrew Bible. They read it everywhere, studied Hebrew and even gave their children Hebrew names. Cromwell's "New Model Army" marched into battle singing Psalms and carrying banners embroidered with the Lion of Judea; their battle cry was "The Lord God of Hosts."

>Arizona Road Hogs Formed in the American Southwest during the Contraction, the Arizona Road Hogs started as a simple highway gang but were able to make the transition to semi-legitimate mercenary work when law and order was (tenuously) re-established. Motorcycle cavalry and armored cars. Although they have largely professionalized, their marketing material still plays up their criminal past.
>Somalia Screamers Afro-Chinese mercenaries recruited from the Chinese neo-colonial enclaves. Specialized in anti-riot work, armed with a wide variety of high-tech gear including the titular seizure-inducing 'screamers'.
>Penanggalan Company Pirate-hunters operating in South-East Asia, with a strong emphasis on intelligence-gathering and night attacks. Their name comes from a vampire myth common in the area.
>Epsilon Executive Solutions This bloodlessly generic PMC is based out of Belgium, is virtually unknown to all but experts in international conflict, and has a list of warcrimes to its name as long as your arm. Operates in central Africa for a variety of multinational corporations.
