tell you what, would love to do a Peaky Blinders style derivation of this, London, Birmingham, Liverpool, Glasgow – gypsy gangs at the races, IRA gun-runners, anarcho-communist insurgents, Italian Mafia in London, the Jewish gangs, the forces of Scotland Yard and the Special Branch. This has really got me excited!

Like the look of this and especially the fact they added cars. Could make for some great scenarios and campaign.

Shut up and take my money !
This looks amazing guys, and this is the kind of game (setting wise) that all your (non tabletop) friends will be happy to play with you on a rainy night ….

I love this being the Hollywood version of this era. And those gangster minis look tremendous.

Why aren’t their more games about 20’s gangsters? Such a cool theme and I love that its the Hollywood version of events.

Looks like a good fun game, and there are those 4ground houses 🙂

Dead Man’s Hand is a brilliant game, so if Chicago Way is based on that then it’s going to be one to watch!

I’ve been eyeballing these minis all week! Those cars are such fun looking kits.

For me as well. Rules, cops set, gangsters set, a car and whole bunch of 4Ground buildings. Really looking forward to putting that all together, maybe building a custom board for this.

This rule set intrigues me a lot, though I’m tempted to set my campaign in 20’s & 30’s Shanghai. Which has the gangsters, spies, drug lords, gun runners, the growing communist movement and the Japanese invasion.

Dead Mans Hand is a great system but the only concern I’d have for this is the amount and type of scenery needed. I know 4 Ground are doing nice stuff.

I’d like to see more of this game looks like it would make a good addition at the club.
