Classification of isometric playing fields and arenas in geomorphic tabletop war games

This paper presents a pilot work-in-progress project to undertake the classification of the different types of playing field layout found in tabletop war games. The intention is to provide a point of reference and a consistently unique key using the classification presented in this paper to help identify the myriad of different tabletop war games commercially available. This paper presents the initial results of a comprehensive survey.
