Seems like this is for Maneuver Unit ["MU"] = 1 Fig.
So if my figs move and fight as individuals, the game likely belongs here.
If my figs move and fight as groups of multiple figs, then the game likely belongs elsewhere.

This is a great level of skirmish, where you can get a lot more personal with your people [or aliens, or whatever]

I've used my Wizards of the Coast Star Wars figs to playtest numerous contemporary and near-future skirmish games.  It gives it a setting. Altho I'm not a huge SW fan, I grew up with it and it is easy to drop a game into any time I want to playtest.  Posts are here:

"The U.S. Army's mission is to fight and win the nation's wars,
and its vision is to be a global force that fights at the scale required."

Sir, I respectfully suggest 1/56 & 1/100 as the best scales in which to fight...!

Latest offering: Exploit Zero Mission Critical

Ground Combat. Cyberpunk setting. Individual skirmish PvP game for 28-32mm miniatures. Three models per side.

A complete game for two players, designed to simulate short, sharp actions between elite, three-person teams at contested locations over critical objectives.

Mission Critical uses the same terminology, dice mechanics, and basic procedures as the original Exploit Zero Cyberpunk Espionage and Mayhem rule set, but is modified to fit the smaller format, figure count, and scale of combat.

NOT buying a 28mm WW2 army for the foreseeable. Deal with it.

Blkout

I ran BLKOUT demos and a tournament at a local war-gaming convention in January.  Very fun game and the figures are really cool.

The eye behind the marker is what makes them believable.
