The practice of removing "dead" figures from the wargames table is hardly realistic; dead men don't just suddenly disappear from battlefields, they lie there till after the battle. When I am fighting wargames I do not remove my "dead" men, I just lie them down on the table and march over them. When the battle is finished I find it interesting to look back and see where I lost most of my men, perhaps in a bloody melee in the farmyard or an ambush in the Woods.
