They look really cool And don't see Polyergus in captivity very often (and I don't recall seeing a journal about them in the past, but might have missed it). I hope you see success with them. They are an awesome species.
Nice!
Ants I have: Tapinoma sessile(2 queen colony). RED MORPH Camponotus neacticus(now has pupae!), Tetramorium immigrans (x3), Aphaenogaster sp, Temnothorax sp, Brachymyrmex sp. possibly infertile , Ponera pennsylvanica, and Pheidole morrisi!
Other insects: Polistes sp. Queen
Ants I need: Pheidole sp., Trachymyrmex sp., Crematogaster cerasi , Dorymyrmex sp. Most wanted: Pheidole morrisii
There may have been one or two journals, but I can't recall their names right off hand. I think they ended poorly, though.

I know someone has beat me to founding this species (and north American polyergus in general) so there won't be any records broken. However i do hope to succeed!
Well, I haven't seen anything on here about keeping Polyergus yet, so you could be the first on FC.

Wait so these can actually take brood from a diffrent species and be totally ok?

That's exactly what they do. They specialize in raiding Formica species.
update january 14th, 2021: EGGS!!!!
today i checked up on the colony and found one of the workers holding a small clutch of eggs. the colony happily took some fruit flies and sugar water as well. everything should be smooth sailing from here.
2 days later.....
