Google search doesn't really turn up the reported '34 years of history'. No reliable sources to confirm. Other than that, looks like an advertisement. Wikipedia is not free ad space. — Dæ dαlus ^Contribs 00:40, 24 June 2009 (UTC)

Keep, I think. A CSR award seems like sufficient notability in the boardgame world, since it's equivalent of the Oscars, and no one would dream of deleting an Oscar-winning actor article! Google is not a good research method, most of the games in the series predate the Internet. Just a quick peek in Jon Freeman's The Complete Book of Wargames from 1980 yields a half-page of discussion on the Auerstadt game, and boardgamegeek cites additional print sources for each game in the series. The article could be saying a lot more and saying it better. Stan (talk) 02:05, 24 June 2009 (UTC)
