Probably a Steel steamroller unless the Factory States re-organized in a big way, or the rogue Ogres manage to storm the Zones before the Minds can figure out how to deal with them.
The Factory States a balkanized partial post-apocalypse where the powerful factory AIs are dependent on attached human citystates for their supply chains and protection. Theoretically one might be able to go all-robotic, but they'd need to assemble a rather specialized collection of designs and templates to build a force of weak-AI support machines, and it seems that the factories (even sapient ones) may not be able to engineer those for themselves.
