Cold War tank sim with the added twist that the player also commands their side at both a tactical and strategic level. Excellent, despite confusing UI

Grand strategy in the style of Panzer Corps; surprisingly easy to grasp given it puts you in command of an entire alliance in the First World War.

Features an innovative system of variable length command turns; morale and jamming affect how often you can issue orders, with nail biting results.

The bog standard flight sim, but with so many excellent addons available it can become almost any aviation experience you desire. Joystick recommended.

Fantastic little top down tactical game in the vein of Rainbow 6/SWAT. Elegant movement and planning system that is a joy to use. Flashbang recommended.

Like a minis wargame that has come alive. Great single, multiplayer and even coop campaigns! Staggering unit selection to build your force from.

A fantastic achievement - novel, satisfying mechanics and great presentation. Steel hard but (mostly) avoids frustration.

Abstract but satisfying mechanically. Passive AI means missions are essentially puzzles, which it turns out is fun! Lovely unit progression system.

From the Rise of Flight devs, so authentic without being over-detailled. A nice variety of flyable aircraft types. Joystick recommended.

Fun, accessible and stylish - would make a great first step into war gaming, but is also a wonderfully relaxing game for more grizzled panzer pushers.
