Gangs are violent, territorial groups that can be found throughout the Imperium. Hive Worlds are known for their extensive amount of gangs. Even Terra has huge amounts of gangs formed from the destitute non-adept population.
Hive world gangs are often part of the powerful rival families of the hives. Some gangs (known as brat gangs) are from the nobility of hive world cities. Powerful lower level gangs are sometimes legitimized by the Planetary Government as the hive world's planetary defense forces. From there they may be recruited into the Imperial Guard.
Notable Gangers
- Snowdog - Gang leader on Tarsis Ultra. When the planet was invaded by Tyranids his gang saved thousands of Imperial citizens.
