Putting it all together - The Chicago Way

So after assembling all those 4Ground buildings I felt I needed to put on a game with them.  So I pulled out a copy of The Chicago Way from Great Escape Games - which is essentially a variant of their Dead Man's Hand western rules with additions for vehicles and automatic weapons.

I took control of some local Gangsters whose hideout was about to be raised by some Prohibition Agents supported by the police.

Here are a few photos from the game:

My gangsters managed to foil the raid (largely through some judicious use of my Hitman - complete with violin case!) and a lot of fun was had.

4Ground Samuel's Garage

The final building in my Chicago collection is somewhere for Samuel to go to work - his garage:

4Ground Samuel's House

Next up for the Chicago collection is Samuel's House:

4Ground (Another) Oldfield Tires

I thought I could do with an additional building so I picked up another "Oldfield Tires" with the sideway this time:

4Ground Shotgun House (C)

And finally for the shotgun shacks:

4Ground Shotgun House (B)

Following swiftly on from the first shotgun shack is another one:

4Ground Shotgun House (A)

Next up is somewhere for the denizens of Chicago to live - a shotgun shack:

4Ground Southam's Tobacconists

To add to my Chicago retail outlets I picked up Southam's Tobacconists.  As with the Davis Jewelry the windows were the fiddly bid (not as bad but still not happy with them).

4Ground Davis Jewelry

The next addition to my Chicago collection was the Davis Jewelry.  I have to say that the windows on this one were pretty fiddly and I decided not to put the large shop lettering provided on the front (a) for fear I was mess it up and (b) so I can attach different signs should I wish to.

4Ground Oldfield Tires

I have been gradually picking the Chicago Way range from 4Ground to enable me to play Pulp and Gangster games.  The first building I assembled was their brick "Oldfield Tires" building:

The building also comes with pavements (or should I say sidewalks?) for the front and side but I didn't have these to hand when I took the photos.
