Nice ideas! I agree greater rewards should come with more risks. However, if it gets too nasty and someones gang loses more than one member, it will really hamper them in the campaign, particularly as its in its early stages. I will look at reducing the rewards slightly and increasing the risks slightly.
I really like the idea of a three or four player game, although I think it might need more notice to organise, and having Mad Jake call on another gang for aid seems cool. I don't think fluff wise he would have links to Space Marines, and probably one space marine could waste an entire gang, but callling for aid from a third gang seems cool.
How about keeping this scenario fairly simple so people can play it as the second game next month (as an option, not a necessity), this one on a D6 roll of 1-3 and the zombie one Vince is doing on the roll of a 4-6. We could then have a 'return to Treasure Island' scenario the next month (November), organising a 3 or 4 player battle? In fact Mad Jake and his gang buddies could spread rumours among the trading post that more loot is to be found, then lay in wait and ambush the three gangs that come along - maybe mad jake is in cahoots with an outlaw band of scavvies or ratskins (the locals) or he's actually the head of a pit-slave gang.
regarding the booby trapped loot, ruthless gang leaders could send in the juves to recover the treasure, as if their kit gets destroyed it doesn't matter so much - at last I can see a use for my orphan with a head wound ' Boy'! Maybe he needs a lobo-chip...
