I dunno man. It definitely has a lot of parallels to rev but the gang leaders and station leaders can make the round a lot more fun for everyone by playing up loyalties and offenses and stuff. You can go ahead and just fuck with the gangs and the gangs can fuck with security, or you can start off with an uneasy peace and just see how the round evolves as people react to stuff. It's up to you.
Gangs seem to be getting better about waiting for a slight from another gang before declaring war, and I've seen a lot more gang leaders lately telling their dudes to avoid provoking the cops. No need to bring down the hatred of the station on yourself at the very start, let that shit happen later on when people start getting caught in the middle of turf disputes. Hopefully this makes it so people want to be seen as the Cool gang so they can operate in the open. At least a couple of the smaller gangs have appointed themselves as protectors of the bar or of medbay and didn't bother trying to win, and this is totally okay, they just had fun defending the crew from other jerk gangs. I think that is awesome and fun.
GANG REMINDER: YOU HAVE THOSE FANCY NEW HEADSETS. ALL OF YOUR GANG MEMBERS GET THEM. Use those to coordinate and keep your thugs in the loop on what you want. If you want your homies to wreck another gang, cool. If you want them to just sit around in the bar being cool and buff in their costumes, rad. Maybe you can use that as a recruiting method. Who knows.
