I'm sure there are other threads, probably in the wargame general forum.

If everyone in the world did their own research, the population as a whole would be a lot smarter.
But people are lazy. There is no initiative to find information on their own - even with the advent of search engines that put the information at your finger tips. No, they want to be spoon-fed everything.
Jimmy, please do some research.
It's not that people are lazy man...they just don't have time to read 387 posts in a thread that ultimately leaves them as confused as they were when they started.
That's why I leave it to the four categories- Wargame, ConSim, War-Themed Game, Euro - and move on.
It's the same for the 'is it a CDG' question. There are lots of games with cards in them but one test for whether or not it is Card Driven Game - take the cards out of the game...if you can still play it is not a CDG. Maybe Card Assisted, but not a CDG.
It's really not that complicated.
And remember the common distinction between the military version vs the commercial version - Wargame (commercial) War Game (military).
