How about other tabletop miniatures games?
Unlike computer and internet-assisted wargames, card wargames, and basic tabletop board (war)games, miniature wargames have one distinct difference; the miniature models that represent characters or units, and often the model scenery placed on the tabletop. Miniatures can be found from 5-60 mm, plastic or metal, and can come painted or unpainted. Warhammer miniatures are generally accepted to be 1:64 scale, or 28mm.

The most renowned tabletop miniatures game and possibly the most legendary and famous game ever is called "Dungeons & Dragons" (also abbreviated as D&D, DnD, AD&D, ADnD) by TSR and later Wizards of the Coast. Some D&D aficionados don't use miniatures, but WOTC (and even the later TSR editions) have strongly supported the use of miniatures with miniatures rules and models for the tabletop. As with any game based on fighting and experience points, tabletop miniatures can not only add a sense of realism, but also prevent visualization issues and hence, arguments, in the game.
There are many types, or genres, of miniatures games and miniatures wargames. Along with fantasy and science fiction miniatures games, Historical wargames are very popular, including ancient and medieval recreation games, civil war, WWI and II recreations, and modern wargames. Many historical miniatures are created by various manufacturers but can be played under a universal set of rules such as "The Art of War," which spans many time periods.
Some currently popular miniature tabletop games include: Warmachine, Hordes, and Monster Apocolypse (by Privateer Press) AT43, and Confrontation (by Rackham Miniatures) Star War Miniatures, D&D Miniatures, and Heroscape, (by Wizards of the Coast) Mage Knights and HeroClix (by Wizkids) as well as a World of Warcraft Miniatures Game, the miniatures version of the famous MMORPG of the same name ("WOW" or World of Warcraft, by Upper Deck and Blizzard Entertainment, respectively). Some popular more faithfully historical miniature wargames include Flames of War (by Battlefront Miniatures), Field of Glory (Osprey Publishing and Wargames Factory), and Axis & Allies Miniatures, (by Wizards of the Coast).
