Yeah..
The Gamers stuff is good and solid..rules are a bit crunchy..but if you can find Force Eagle's War, then you could have something that would all you to do some battalion-brigade fights with modern equipment. (I like it better than the Assault series GDW put out).

Another honorable mention is Lock n' Load's "Next War" Series. It's fictionalized, but it plays right and is dirt simple, and the same scale as Assault. All you have to do is redo the maps to fit actual terrain and you're set. They've already done Germans, and Brits are about to be released for the system.

As for ASL... Power to those that play it...but those rules are written such that one might need their PhD in Wargaming. It's why I play miniatures instead.
