You knew I was gonna give it, so here's my two cents.

Have the way gangs are managed changed. Firstly, Gangs, like players, have levels. It takes a certain amount of respect to "level up" a gang, when you level up, you get an additional member slot, along with a new armory slot (for a weapon or armor) And yes, that is hinging on the idea that zenith adds an armory for gangs. There could be other bonuses for levelling up as well such as your gangs defensive bonus or an attack bonus. Maybe even make this selectable by the president.

So, respect now acting like experience, here are the results of a loss, you DO continue to lose respect, but only until you reach zero of your current gang level, much like player levels. This ends a current war, once a gang reaches 0 respect toward the next level. You cannot de-level a gang, only keep them from levelling up.
