If you're not familiar with Age of Rifles be sure to check it out. I'm pretty sure you can still find it on abandonware sites. It'll scratch the itch for pre-20th century warfare.

Our games are modern armoured warfare.
The OP wanted games in the linear warfare period - which hex style maps really don't do well for, other than perhaps if counters are battalions or larger. Hexes do unconvincing 'wiggly' lines for those games that try to do tactical linear warfare (A unit is a brigade or battalion represented by 16-30 or so 15/25mm model soldiers, or a Kriegspiel block). Linear warfare needs something like the following ongoing development (Ancients, but the engine would do for the horse and musket era post medieval right up to the Boer War)
