Counterterrorist Force is a set of free wargames rules for gaming modern counter terrorist operations. The author writes:
CTF (Counter-Terrorist Force) is a pure “player vs. player” (1 on 1) game where the main focus is on tactics and realistic combat. The game is played from both sides of the conflict. One person plays the terrorists and the other takes the role of counterterrorist. Not only do you execute missions, you also run your own counter terrorist corporation and try to work your way up from scratch. You will also fight occasionally as a terrorist so that your friends can play as counter terrorist troopers too. Game play can either be single missions to improve your corporation, or otherwise in campaign mode where two campaigns are interwoven – you and your opponent take turns as terrorists - and you both have your own counterterrorist unit to run every second game in your individual campaign.

Miniature Wargaming is part of the "adventure games" hobby, which includes r ole p laying and board games. Wargamers recreate battles on the tabletop with toy soldiers, like a more complicated game of chess. Models range in height from 6mm to 28mm tall, with 15mm and 25mm being the most popular. There also is a growing interest in toy soldiers and military models, such as the 1/32 and 1/35 scale plastic soldiers from Conte, and Marx.
The most popular miniature wargames are fantasy and science fiction based, such as Warhammer, Warhammer 40K, Warmachine and The Lord of the Rings. World War II games such as Flames of War and Axis and Allies are new favorites. Other favorite historical periods include Napoleonics, the American Civil War, and ancients, such as Romans or Greeks. Other gamers enjoy miniature naval wargames, recreating battles like Trafalgar, Jutland and the Coral Sea.
Hobbyists research historical periods and paint their tiny soldiers in accurate uniforms. Others develop "historically realistic" rules sets or build scale battlefield terrain using model railroad techniques.
For pictures, visit the gallery.
Some of the bigger hobby companies are Games Workshop, which produces Warhammer, Wargames Foundry and Old Glory Miniatures. Wizards of the Coast produces several lines of pre-painted miniatures games, such as the Star Wars and Dungeons and Dragons miniatures games, and a historical game with pre-painted miniatures: The new Axis and Allies game. Wizkids produces a fantasy collectable miniatures game, such as the Mage Knight and Heroclick fantasy games, the science fiction games MechWarrior and Rocketmen, as well as the quasi-historical Pirates of the Spanish Main.
