Gang Name: The Black Bombers

Map Colour: Black

Starting Location: Industrial

Fluff: "The Black Bombers" is a notorious illegalist outfit notorious for their outlandish dynamite attacks on police stations, government buildings, banks, and other institutions of authority (when not engaged in bank robbery or other activities of expropriation). Their motivations are political as much as they are aesthetic: living in an unjust system has made them largely unconcerned with the "law" and they behave in a manner one might of the lower orders frustrated by hunger and misery – theft to survive and terror to retaliate against the bourgeois order. As such, the bombers are an odd group: the poor, the destitute, the romantics, the bored, the frustrated, and the nihilistic.

Starting Location:Middle class district

Fluff:The Markov Family use to be the biggest mafia in Novorus until the first son of the family, Ivo, was shot by a very pissed off husband who shot his wife seconds after for cheating, the police found illegal drugs in Ivo's pack and led to the police cracking down on the Markov family arresting the head of the family, Kachusov, and the last two sons, Sukhikh and Ostaltsev, however Marynovka the only daughter of Kachusov was unrelated to any of the crimes her family committed and was free to go, so she came to Geniicia with a few of the members of the once powerful mafia who weren't arrested to make the Markov family stronk again.

Gang Name: The Dastards

Map Colour: White

Starting Location: Upper Class District

Fluff: Even lazy rich people have hobbies; in the case of the head of the Dastards, his own hobby is to perform petty yet elaborate acts of crime, not out of any monitary need, but simply because it gives him his jollies. His associates, though dressed in similar classy clothing, are largely middle class men who have joined this mad man's endevours in hopes that they might become as rich as he, using it as an excuse to get out of the notoriously chaos-bound middle class district.

Dressed in derby or tophats and long coats, these old-fashioned criminals might appear comical, but those on the receiving end of their crimes can hardly find their actions a laughing matter; extortion, money laundering, running political machines, the Dastards alternate between a frighteningly efficient criminal organization with a petty side streak, using their powers to shut down public services and make the lives of the lower classes that protest against them miserable, as well as the occasionaly tying those that look at them wrong to a train track.

Gang Name: The Green Shore Gang

Map Colour: Green

Starting Location: Slums

Fluff: With the recent wave of immigrants to Geniicia came a few less than honest people, looking for the easy path to the Geniician Dream. From an island nation, Hebrinia, as far West as the continent to the East goes, came the Green Shore Gang, led by Paddy McMurphy. The famines in Hebrinia impovrished their peoples, and hundreds sailed west to Geniicia, in search of opportunity. Some brought their families, some were forced to leave them behind, but they send almost every cent they make home. McMurphy isn't one of those poor mendicants, nor is he one of those who send their remittance home. He brought his family with him, and rather than toil in the factories, or on the docks, he chose a life of crime. His closest family and friends work for him, and he intends to spread an empire from the slums in the South, all the way up to the upper class district in the North. For now, they're operating out of the back of supermarket, where they can see more and more food running out every day. He wants to bring prosperity to himself, and to his people, so that they no longer need to starve, or toil in servitude.

Gang Name: The Revolution

Map Colour: Red

Starting Location: Slums, near Industrial District

Fluff: The Revolution was born out of the distaste for the upper class after the Industrial Revolution of Geniicia had ended and the new era had dawned. Several workers had noticed that the toils and tribulations of the factory workers had gone unnoticed and the workers gone under-paid. Their leader Alekinokov would have none of it. He began to build a movement, following the teaching of the Philosopher Gustav Von Marx, he dreamed of a new Geniicia, a equal Geniicia, a Geniicia free of classes, and a Geniicia free on injustice.

1. The first thing we should do now that we are here is simple, get better equipment. [Buy weapons and equip the goons with them]

2. Then after we get the weapons simply visit the nearby houses and businesses and "Convince" them that they should pay us for protection. [Make a protection racket.]

3. And lastly we should try to find some people who would like to join us. [have the goons recruit more goons.]

Gang Name: Police Station 67

Map Colour: Blue

Starting Location: Middle Class District

Fluff:

Where is the best place for a gang to hide? The slums? The prisons? Houses?

Why, right inside law enforcement of course. Police Station 67 patrols the middle class district with an otherwise spotless record, all thanks to them being the record keepers. Run by Police Chief Bryan who ceremoniously selected only close associates and family members to serve him, they do whatever they want with impunity, racking up wealth by cooperating with local crime, recording only the things they want to see, and making sure to hire none but the best lawyers and auditors to help them hide any evidence to the contrary.

Who watches the watchmen? Nobody watches the watchmen.

1. Paddy McMurphy sits down his ten men in the back of the supermarket. In their numbers are Jimmy McMurphy (Paddy's brother), Sean McMurphy (Paddy's cousin), Seamus McPatrick (a family friend), Brian McNeil (An older Hebrinian, who was one of the first ones off the boats), Conor Guinness (A local butcher), Jack Guinness (Conor's brother, and the owner of the supermarket), Angus O'Callahan (A bareknuckle boxer and friend of Sean), Harry Connolly (A young patriot, some may say terrorist, fleeing from the authorities back home), and Odhran Kearney (One of Harry's brothers-in arms, and an excellent orator.) Everyone listens to his forceful, but not loud voice.

"It's time to start making money. There's so many opportunities that open up once you have money, chief among them is the opportunity to expand your operation. What is the most efficient way to obtain more cash? We could try stealing industrial materials from factories in one part of the industrial district, and selling them elsewhere. We could start extorting shopkeepers in our territory, non-Hebrinians, of course. I'm guessing most of the other scum around here are Copainskians, so we can shake some of them down, but I'm laying out a rule, right here, right now: We don't pick on our own kind. We're going to dig our people out of poverty, and raise them up on the backs of those who would have oppressed them without the Green Shore Gang." [Make money through industrial theft, extortion, and petty theft, avoiding targeting Hebrinians]

2. "Next up, we need to get more men in this operation. What we've got here just isn't going to cut it. Odhran, Brian. I want you two to start looking around the slums and industrial district for Herbinian bums, factory workers, and really anyone else who looks like they could use a job. Tell them that once we get off the ground, they'll be extremely well paid. Odhran, appeal to the idealists and younger ones. You've got a way with words. Brian, you've been here longer than any of us. Focus on telling the people with jobs that it's just not worth it working for anyone other than us. [Send Odhran and Brian to recruit Hebrinians, +10]

3. "The rest of you, except for Harry Jack, come with me and grab a bit of wood, pipe, or whatever you've got that could hurt. We're moving West so that we've got some coastal control so that we can start moving guns, drugs, or people over the water. Harry and Jack, stay back here and keep an eye on the place. We're rolling out." [Take Jimmy, Sean, Seamus, Conor, and Angus West so that we can start pushing out anyone less established than us from that block, and intimidate anyone who might think twice about listening to us. Otherwise, we stay nice, and never hurt a Hebrinian if we can help it.]
