If you're in this faction, expect to die. As an antagonistic force of any sort, you're obligated to play to lose.
What are we?
We're a secretive cult of assholes that worship technology in all forms. Emphasis on assholes. Contrary to what you may have seen on all other public posts, we do not hunt raiders or act as goody two shoes in any capacity. In actuality, we're slavers and killers. People labeled as 'raiders' or 'savages' by us are generally innocent people. Slaves are used to mine and / or take apart cars for scraps. Other uses for slaves include using them as combat slaves in battles and pitting them against creatures in our arena for caps, generally in rigged fights. We also sell people shitty guns that sometimes blow apart and shortchange people we don't like.
Beliefs:
Like any good cult, we have beliefs. We believe that we can reach perfection through technology, and that if we work towards it, we will reach a time where people would be essentially immortal, conflict would be non-existent, and that no-one would have to work again. Of course, the group is years from that goal, and uses slaves (workers and 'criminals') as cheap labor. Taking technology by force is normally considered if trading fails.
Basic guidelines:

Basic guidelines:
- Avoid direct conflict. We're brainwashed cultists, but we're not crazed junkies. If conflict cannot be avoided, use mercenaries, robots, and combat slaves if applicable.
- Try to keep our bad guy shit secret to outsiders.
- Do cultist shit. Try to brainwash our slaves into our beliefs.
- Avoid actually killing people. People don't like dying. If you're forced, try to merely enslave people. Otherwise, only NLR them. Remember to play to lose, however.
- When scavenging, try to have either a robot or person in full gear with you. Don't use metal armor and long arms if you don't need them at the time.
Agenda:
- Depose the NCR through any means necessary.
- Build up reputation with the townsfolk and gain their trust.
- Recruit mercenaries, hopefully turn the mercenaries into the Metalheads at some point.
Get the generator working, electrify the fences.- Acquire energy weapons.
Obtain 'workers.'
Timeline:
- Grinder makes contact with the NCR. Metalheads attempt weapons deal; deal is rejected.
- Metalheads sneak into town and damage the NCR building with a minor explosive. Minor things stolen.
- Metalheads raid a small group holed up in an apartment building. The survivors are enslaved.
