My usual minimum for MBT is 120x120. 160x160 is more reasonable, given that anything under 40 is pointblank range.
I could do an all infantry battle with only on-map mortars for support. Pick one of these wars and a side;

And we can get too it. I'll send an e-mail with slot choices, plus any other rules you want.
Co-sign on that and thanks for the handy referance.
