Are you going to commission AndyM to make a nice New Yorkian themed demo board?  ;D

They look great Iain. A brilliant idea for a game. The figures look superb.  :D

Please say that you'll consider doing some cops and detectives for the range. Something I've been after for ages..

The Warriors is one of my all-time favourite films, and the sculpts are nailing it.

A group of 70's New York cops is in the plan :)

A Blue Oyster Bar Crew is another option.

We'd have to avoid commenting that those figures were 'fabulous' though...
... you could of course also include the Mafia in the Kickstarter... "Pledge early to avoid the mob".  ;)

I can see this range/game being a lot of fun.

..a mixed Race Skinhead gang.

Now THAT is extra cool for an old antifa skin, and lines up with the Turnbull ACs. Gonna have to find a school bus now..
Love this project!

Loads of Mafia figure types out there but i have thought about a Young Wise Guys gang. A gang of wannabes earning their Rep on the streets. The rules are not going have a lot of focus on guns and more emphasis on hand weapons like knives and bats etc. The possibilities of gangs is endless. I just need to make sure i don't bankrupt myself haha.

Early 70s? Surely you want a 'not Al Pacino' and co from Dog Day Afternoon? Oh and of course figures bearing a marked resemblance to the Harvey Keitel and Robert de Niro characters in Mean Streets.

This is a great idea, Andy is an incredible terrain builder and a good board will surely help sell figures.
