Greetings,
I have a good collection of asymmetrical warfare from Rhodesia, Mog 93, Afghanistan and Iraq.
I would like to maybe do some more symmetrical games with similarly skilled operators opposed to each other. Any fictional scenarios or even real world?

Asymmetrical more examples: Malayan Emergency, Borneo Confrontation and Battle of Diem Bien Phu?
Symmetrical examples: Second Sino -Japanese War 1944 – 1945, Korean War, Falklands Conflict?
Regards
Allan

@Field Marshal – I typed "list of symmetrical warfare conflicts and battles since 1990" into Google and AI gave a list of wars and battles with a fair amount of detail. I didn't check the references but it looked like a fantastic start, and since you asked for fictional or real world it's definitely a great start.

When I did my Rhodesian war collection, I painted ZANLA in mixed green uniform and ZAPU in mixed tan uniforms. I also did a unit of Rhodesian African Rifles.

This gave three African forces for the various internal fights.

The coup d'etat is the classic symmetric situation, I think.
