  • RSS/LoB – The Regimental Sub-System series / Line of Battle simulates battles at the regimental level during the American Civil War.
  • TCS – The Tactical Combat series simulates 20th century platoon level battles.
  • OCS – The Operational Combat series simulates 20th century battles at levels ranging from battalions to divisions.
  • SCS – The Standard Combat series is a general system which is easy (yet still challenging) and allows simulation of a wide range of battles.
