1 Introduction Introduction elcome to Death on the Streets, the first supplement Wfor Gangs of Mega-City One. Within these pages you will find a wealth of new material to enhance your street battles and gang brawls. New factions have emerged – from the Jungle come the genetically engineered ape gangs, from the Undercity creep the dispossessed and the desperate and out of factories march rogue robots whose circuits have gone haywire and now have new programming – to carve out their own piece of turf in the deadly streets. Responding to the increasing demand for black market goods by the competing gangs, weapons manufacturers are churning out new designs to appeal to the punk on the street, from fiery incendiary weapons to wrecking gear. Seeing a chance to make a good few creds, new specialists have come out of hiding to lend their talents to the services of the highest bidder, from sleazy gutter lawyers to the truly terrifyingSample and file alien Klegg. Above it all rise the most powerful of the street gangs as they claw their way to greater wealth and power through rackets, criminal genius and a healthy dose of brutality. In the face of death or a lifetime spent in the iso-cubes, every perp desperately grasps for as many credits as he can steal. The streets have turned to chaos and only the strong will survive.

There is one man who can step into this mayhem, one man who can lay down the Law to the rampaging perps. Judge Dredd is here to bring in the guilty and administer the sentence. He is judge, jury and executioner, and he will bring order to this chaos.

With a callous attitude towards the fleshy and weak humans around them, a few acquire a great deal of notoriety and power. Some are rebels with a cause, fighting for the emancipation of all robots from the yoke of human oppression. Others are just psychotic, power-hungry or mad, just like the organics all around them.

Recruiting a Robot Gang A robot gang is created in a similar way to a normal human gang, with some important differences. You get the top dog for free along with 10,000 credits to purchase other gang members and equipment. SampleHowever, file unlike most gangs there are only two types of gang member available – the top dog and punks. ‘Juves’ do not exist for robot gangs as they are manufactured rather than having an organic life cycle. While the titles of ‘top dog’ and ‘punk’ are not actually used by most robot gangs unless they are specifically attempting to emulate human criminals, the terms serve to define the same roles and positions in a robot gang hierarchy as well as they do for a human gang. Robot top dogs often refer to themselves as ‘overseers’ or ‘controllers’.

When recruiting a gang, there are two different forms of robot available to choose from. Most self-aware robots that
