“Like minded individuals often gather together for mutual defence
of themselves and their turf. It's a strategy that humanity has employed
from the early days of recorded history to the industrial work gangs in
the mega cities of earth and Alpha Centuari. However colonial gangs are
more often than not the first line of defence in case of siege and
invasion as they are farmers and families who have gathered together to
protect their holdings and claims from aggression. Once a colony has
developed beyond a few small farms and a port is established, the gangs
still exist, levying control on areas they claimed at the start of the
landing. However other inhabitants may take offense to this and start
their own gangs to take back these holdings. At other times they are
sprung up from perpetually bored teenagers with little common sense and
an eye for violence. On occasion they may even become notorious
criminals or just a more militant version of the Planet Defence Forces.
Their colours are as numerous as they have numbers, and are often used
as a conscript force if things do get dire. Lightly armoured but heavily
armed with cheap rec-guns and knowledge, their hold on their turf is
absolute and can spring ambushes and raid supply convoys before melting
back into spider holes to lick their wounds and strike again later.
Their morale is often tied to their leader through a cult of
personality, if he dies, they will run. But as most find out, they will
be back in greater numbers and with more weapons to settle the score.
Colonial life is harsh and brutal enough as it is, but these souls have
opted for a more difficult life and will carve out their name and
colours... or die trying.”
