There's more than just minis - lots of tabletop stuff being played through online platforms like VASSAL, Tabletopia, and TTS :)

Hope to see you there!

There's a big 8-player epic Memoir '44 game on Bastogne during the Bulge
Multiple games of fantasy skirmish game Freeblades! from DGS Games
Lock 'n Load Tactical & World at War both from LNLP
Conflict of Heroes with the pre-release version of France: 1940
Pre-pub games from Ryan Heilman (Brave Little Belgium) and Scott Moore
Multiple Napoleonic games, at both the operational and skirmish levels
(waaaaaay more than this - these are just highlights!)

There's also a daily "wargame bootcamp" for online play to teach new players how to use Discord, VASSAL, and Tabletop Simulator to play wargames using any of those various tools.
