I think there is a mod for this..

But you can hardcode them in yourself.  It is really easy.  look around in load.php, modifymessage.php, lockthread.php, mergethreads.php and removethread.php..  maybe splitthread.php too depending on how much they really need to be able to do.
load.php is where you will define the new membergroup and assign them the same stars as the global mod.  The rest are the files where you will define their "powers"
Basically just copy wherever it mentions the global mod and add in something that says about the same just with whatever name you're giving your membergroup.

Also you will have to edit display.php so that the admin icons show up for them..
I think those are all the files you need to edit, but I don't remember right off hand.  I made a membergroup that could sticky and lock topics a while back and I remember it being really simple.  Just look around, all you really need to do is copy code, changing "Global Moderator" in the copied code to whatever your membergroup name is.

Make sure you back up before you do it.

why not just assign them as global mods?

You could just change the name of the Global Mod group..  you can do this without having to edit any code too.

The only reason I can think that you would really need to do what you are talking about is if you want them to only have some of the powers that Globals do.. such as what I needed for my site.   I created a user group that could sticky and lock, but that's all I wanted them to be able to do..
