For people wanting to discuss more than simply wargames, is there any chance of having a History forum implemented? To widen the span of it, it could range from Ancient to Modern-day, but I just feel it would be a nice place to discuss history.

I would suggest Armchair General.All aspects are covered there including current events.I find with this forum people get quite upset if your opinion differs from their's.

Axis History Forum is a good one as well.

Isn't there anything here though? It would be nice to be able to discuss history without getting brutally mauled by all of the enthusiasts

Right now, General Discussion is the place for that, but I do think it's a good suggestion. We've been trying not to add many more forums, but we might go ahead and do that.

That would be awesome if you did. While I very much appreciate you guys not wanting to add more forums than you have to, I do think having a History section here would be most welcome.

As much as the idea for a new forum devoted to the discussion of history appeals to me, are there really enough new posts to warrant another forum?

Well I believe the potential posts are more important than how many we can move in to a possible history forum, since it'll leave quite a wide range of topics to discuss.
