Every player has been randomly assigned a team by a random number generator -- the biggest shakeup to the game, ever. No friendships. No ideology. Pure political bloodsport.
Bonanno (The Rivals)Yankee, Blair, Oakvale. Sometimes, they just weren't on the same team -- other times they were at each other's throats. Now, though, they have to put aside past differences to stay alive. PSOL and fhtagn are also there -- are they GOTVers? Enforcers? Protection collectors? The triumvirate will decide.

Colombo (The Scrappies)The Bonannos have a lot of the players who have split from the major machines, for one reason or another. Wulfric, Ishan, HCP, T'Chenka, Koopa, and Laki are all here. However, there are some more classic machine players to keep them in line: OBD, Cao, and LouisvilleThunder head up the family, giving orders and busting kneecaps. Scott and thumb21 are also here -- the matriarchs/patriarchs of the family.

Gambino (The Vets)Three of the oldest players in the game head up the Gambino family: Truman, tmth, and windjammer. However, they have wildcards to spare. Spark, the ladies' man, and Poirot, the professor, are always on hand to take care of business. And Peebs is on the team too -- is ballot-box stuffing on the table? Time will tell!

Genovese (The Ballbusters)The Genovese family is stacked. Jimmy, YT, MB, Pericles, Lumine, Griffin, dfw. Most of the key power players of the past several years are here, and yours truly is along for the ride. Indeed, the sheer force of Genovese's GOTV may be hard to top. But with this much power, and only one chairmanship, internal forces may ballbust the family before it can bust the balls of others.

Lucchese (Everyone Else)Lucchese's key power player is Sestak -- others like KaiserDave, WB, YE, tack, Ninja, and SevenEleven round out the family. Conventionally successful GOTVers are in short supply -- however, there's no shortage of promising young'uns here. They just might have what it takes to rise to the top.
