I played a lot of Avalon Hill’s MBT game when it first came out. Now you can get new maps and scenarios depicting terrain/actions found in the fictional WW3 novel “First Clash” by Kenneth Macksey.The premise of the book revolved around the Canadian Mechanized Brigade Group defending its sector in West Germany in the opening days of WW3 against attacking Soviet tank/motor rifle regiments.

Dawn of the Dead board game
O.K. So it’s not miniatures, but anyone my age will remember the classic SPI game “Dawn of the Dead.” There’s a downloadable version here.
G63 Gettysburg 1863 Board Game
G63 Gettysburg 1863 is a hex-and-counter board game of the battle of Gettysburg. The print-and-play game is free for the downloading. I am not sure, however, if it is entirely serious in nature. There are just two counters and the board has just seven hexes. The rules, however, seem to indicate something more serious. Strange.
Acies Ancients Battle Card Game
Acies is a very nice looking two player card game designed to simulate conflict between ancient armies. it looks like it would be a fun thing to play on off-nights when your regular miniatures games end early. All the parts you need are there to download and print out.

City of Guilds is a print and play board game about gaining influence in a medieval city. Players do this by assuming the role of one of the great guilds and playing action cards.
