Nope. All are available to either Blue or Red-siders.

Thanks going to have fun with this.

As others have said, no.  However, be aware that doing Praetorian missions via Ouroboros can be buggy as heck and may require GM intervention a couple of times.  Especially if you've already done any First Ward content.

The only difference to an Ouro arc is the options to spy for the other faction is not available.   All the arcs work pretty well, but as Lunar mentioned, if you did any Praetorian arc while leveling, sometimes contacts wind up funky.   I don't remember any oddness in First or Night Ward, but I suppose if you locked Katie away in the network, she might not be available during a couple missions where she ports you in for others.   Contacts killed off tend not to be available in live, but are available as a contact in Ouro fine.

The final mission of the Helix story arc via Ouroboros Flashback can break if you've already done some Praetorian content and will require GM intervention to complete.  The leading theory is that if you've done the Palatine's story arc in First Ward before hand, it'll break, but it's also happened on characters that have never stepped foot in First Ward.
