"Flames of War" is perhaps the greatest World War II miniatures wargaming system ever developed, and its companion game "Team Yankee" uses the same system for Cold War / modern era.
Flames of War is a 15mm wargame, meaning that a man-sized model is about half an inch tall, with squads of 3-5 men mounted on a single base. This small size means that it is easy to fit the best part of the game on tables en-masse; tanks.
Flames of War lets you field several platoons of tanks (about the size of a matchbox car) and do battle with an opposing force of a similar era and destructive potential. The game is very much based around history and the real capabilities of men and weapon systems - but is just abstract enough to be easily playable.
Of course, it's not just about tanks - infantry, artillery, and aircraft are all playable (and deadly) options to integrate into your force. Forces are organized around real military structures, and the game based around realistic military objectives.
Flames of War and Team Yankee armies usually comprise 10 - 60 miniatures organized into 4 - 10 squads. Full games usually take 2-3 hours.
