ALG/Kruger merger will probably happen gradually over time. No need to worry about setting a group up, then the NPC faction vanishing next version.
Long term, you may need to cooperate or merge with any ALG groups though. It's undecided how far this is going to go - could be the purchase of certain assets, or a full-on hostile takeover.
