Hold on there, buckaroo!!
It seems to me that a little company called Microgames back in the 
old days produced a game called OGRE which remains one of the 
all-time most fun game systems to muck around with! OGRE with it's 
sibling GEV are an exellent way of simulating a wide battle front 
with all the occompanying support units!! For the LOW<LOW cost of $5 
at the time, it was probably the best game I ever spent money on....
