For clarification, the name "crucible" was chosen based on the following definition: "A ceramic or metal container in which metals or other substances may be melted or subjected to very high temperatures."  In other words, it's a melting pot or furnace. I saw the name of ME's Crucible being derived from the fact that so many alien civilizations have added to it over time.

As for the alternate title of "Galactic Conflicts", I do see the term "conflicts" as rather generic. I am okay with it nonetheless, but I would much prefer a more unique title if possible.

For the "galactic" part, that is a point to consider as intergalactic exchanges are likely to expand in the future. However, given the fact that the different galaxies are distinctly separate from one another and have their own set of internal conflicts, it may as well remain "galactic".
