security: roundstart access to guns, armor and stuns
weakness: everybody hates sec and often team up to kill you, your loot makes you an enticing target

Cargo (Ordering shit AND miner loot?) > Engineering > Chem > Other, probably

Re: Which department is suitable for powergaming?
historically speaking its easily always been tied between cargo & security. cargo (the department) would often turn into literally every single department all at once using their copious private space and lack of responsibilities, while still having unique cargo benefits such as guns and whatnot. security just has guns immediately with no effort and an obligation to kick ass.
security's powergaming comes from their immediate equipment and their license to kick ass and chew bubblegum. there's nothing that stomps antags quite as hard as a security team that is all hopped up on redtext lust roaming maintenance in pairs...
edit: i should say science ends up on top if you give them like an hour of time and infinite materials, but that's not really realistic so i wouldn't consider it "the best" at powergaming, just because it has the highest potential.
