New here, but long time gamer

I really like the gang mix but have a few gang ideas I'd like to see.

1) A confederate rebel force is a natural

2) freed slaves with a voodoo doc boss

3) a rail crew, hammers, pikes, dynamite etc with a well-dressed boss

I like those. The Confederate's got my vote,

Good ideas

I wanted to do confederates, but I was afraid that since the game takes place in 1890 they might seem out of place. It's kind of why Wilde's Rangers don't look like union soldiers since the uniforms were a little different in 1890. Could maybe still do it.. old hillbillies trying to bring back the good ole days?

#2.. coming in expansion #2

3, I kind of wanted to do that with the secret fist as chinese rail workers, but their theme evolved a lot but yeah that would be fun to do with another gang

How about a Confederate soldier/officer who has lived longer than he should, perhaps because he's been turned into a vampire, or something else equally long-lived. Maybe even trapped in time by an Indian curse. As for a name, maybe something like Stephen Compton.

I could easy see gang of 'sons of the south' dessing Confederate as a gang

When will the crazy clowns hit now?

A natural for some fun one day is some aliens *

The clowns are on hold now since they didn't get funded last time.. but they will still get done. We want to get the new sculpts from the last campaign all done first and then we'll start moving on to others. We might change them around a bit though and include them as a gang in the next campaign with the werewolves.. maybe the dog-faced boy or some other carnival freak could be in there

I'd like to see if I can add aliens somehow, but in a way that's not too corny.. I'll have to think about that more, right now focusing on were-things I don't want to get too far ahead of myself

When the "dead things" expansion comes out I second the Confederate vampire.

Also think ghost of the civil war dead might be flavorsome for a group (either side).

I think we can make that happen

A Confederate undead gang sounds sweet

the clowns could work with a few 'freaks' added
