Are there any rulesets, and/or minis from a set company that can work for the Grand Theft Auto videogame series?

Okay,  I can honestly say I never thought I would see this kind of post.

No ideas and given the description of the game content I must say I am at a loss as to which elements of this game you want to recreate.

Gracias,

Maybe some of the modern street toughs from Copplestone? I don't have any specific recommendations for individual figures though.

I would try using 20mm or 1/72 Hot Wheels toy cars. Stan Johansen has some armed gang members and civilians in 20mm. 15mm moderns might also work with thicker bases.

The Flying Lead ruleset (Ganesha Games) would work for squad sized gang fights and might work for making a "hero" for scenario and missions.

Gang War I would imagine.
I've thought about this before actually as the gang wars in San Andreas (easily the best game in the series so far and one of the best videogames ever released) are really fun and would work with just about any modern/near future skirmish ruleset.

Might try this thanks. Wink

And, Conquistador, I guess there's a first time for anything then. Cheesy

I'm just waiting for the next game, and for 8 months, this is all me and my fellow fans have had.

Obelisk Miniatures has some nice Gangers in 28mm that should work.

And have a look at the foundry street violence range.

There's the odd figure in TAG's modern range too. SWAT, terrorists, organised criminals etc. Worth checking out anyway.

Great miniatures but quite small, they look like teenagers but maybe they were intended to be youngsters.

That worries me then. I was looking at them, due to the Armorcast websites logo for them being based on the GTA logo.
