I don't mean war games like COD or Halo (just wanted to put that first so anyone who doesn't read all the way won't post them) I mean like Axis&Allies or Team Yankee-esque games. I'm trying to find a good wargame that's not too difficult to learn so I can finally wargame with some of my friends who aren't into games that have a steep learning curve. Any suggestions?

I know people who aren't into wargamming and when they hear it they ask "like cod?", and I didn't want anyone like that to post games like that on here. It was just to be on the safe side

I've seen that. It looks fun, but doesn't it cost quite a bit for all the pieces?

Yea, I figure if I started making more money I might give it a try. Right now my favorite wargame is team yankee, which seems to me to be pretty fun and semi-simple but it's too repetitive so that's why I'm here looking for new ones :)

Arma 2 Though the learning curve might be to steep cause its fairly realistic (like 1 good shot and its game over) and if you use mods you can make it extremely realistic.

Good game, but that's not the kind of game I'm looking for.

If you're talking table-top wargames than I would recommend Warmachine/Hoardes by Privateer Press or Flames of War.

For warhammer I would say the price is a little steep and unless you have people you know you can play with regularly I would say stay away for the most part, especially if you are going with Warhammer (fantasy) vs Warhammer 40k (distopian sci-fi).

I was just thinking, are there any table-top wargames that play on an individual soldier level? Like you have a squad of soldiers but command each soldier individually through a town or something to that effect?

What is it that interests you in these games? Are you looking for historical or sci-fi? Fancy graphics or a better system? There are also better alternatives than warhammer. It all depends on what you're looking for.

Sorry for being vague. I'm mostly looking for table-top wargames, I want ww2-present era games that are simple for new players but still fun.
