Not so! REAL wargames are played on a large table covered with green felt, cardboard buildings, lichen for trees, lots of miniature soldiers/tanks/ships/etc. and stacks of combat charts and rules.

Excuse me a moment. I gotta consult the shock attack table.

I still had these residing on my HD, by chance:





That is from the Third world War series by GDW - Game Designers Workshop, Australia. Scale was division-level. I loved it, for solitaire play was fine with it, and the complexity and workload for solitaire players not overloading them.
