Fields of Glory is an early battle strategy game published by MicroProse in 1993. In the game players can re-enact several famous battles in Napoleon's Waterloo campaign. The battles in the game are fought in real-time, and strive to create a sense of realism.

Recently (approx late 2007) a set of Ancients wargame rules using miniature Figures in the vein of WRGs DBx series has been published . These were initially developed under the name "Art of War" as in Sun Tzu. The rules are commercially available with associated army lists which will cover the Ancients period (generally accepted to be from the dawn of civilization up to the dawn of the renaissance approx 1485).
