In connection with a project, I'm making a list of WW2 squad level tactical game systems (not stand alone one-off's). So far, I have;

ASL (Advanced Squad Leader)
ATS (Advanced Tobruk System)
CoH (Conflict of Heroes)
BoB (Band of Brothers)
CC (Combat Commander)
LnL (lock 'n Load)

I think these constitute the main one, but have I missed any?

Thanks.

If you expand the criteria to include platoon level then you can include the Panzer Grenadier series from Avalanche Press.

Once you to platoon level, you add a bunch, like N@W and PanzerBlitz/PanzerLeader, too

Bob's got a "project" now, eh? Denise got tired of you getting underfoot again, didn't she?

"Rob, go upstairs and start a project or something, you're driving me mad!" <threatens with frying pan>

Organizing his collection of moustache combs only takes up so much time.

Though I wouldn't recommend bothering. AP is stuck in the early 90's. They won't freely support Vassal and I hear that PG games are hit or miss anyway.

Nice! Now there's a shopping list that won't run out too soon :)

Panzer uses squads for the infantry.
GMT has a new one on P500 "Last 100 Yards", though not a series, more games are planned.

I have that for a different category, together with a few more, such as Nations at War and the War Storm series.

I thought you may try and slip that one, Vance. As of now though, its a single game and not part of a series, at least, until the next one comes out.

Ambush
Tide of Iron

Thanks, Brant.

Apart from a forum game here, I have not played Ambush for a long time. However, in some ways, the scale of it is not what I'm looking for since it really deals with individuals rather than squads.

I've never played Tide of Iron, so I'll leave that one out.
