@warcolours I think that’s personal opinion as opposed to a fact.  What you are referring to as a “wargame” is probably better described as a “recreation” or a “reenactment”.  Wargames is, to me, a catch all term for all kinds of games played on the table top that either simulate or abstract a battle, whether fictional, factual or anything in between.

I would also say that even if you wanted to refight a historical battle, you still need a game, otherwise what are you really doing other than pushing miniatures around and following a script?  That’s not a game or a wargame.  You might not need it to be well balanced like you would for a tournament game but you still need a game
