Compass Games has the nascent War Storm series that I like better than Avalanche's PzG series.  The scale is platoon level. 

The biggest difference for me, is that I like the way War Storm deals with leaders over the way PzG does it.  Compass Games also fully supports Vassal...a critical factor in my buy decisions.  So far the games in the series are:

Paths to Hell:  WWII early Eastern Front
A las Barricadas!:  Spanish Civil War
La Bataille de France:  1940...Char Bs vs panzers....what fun

There are planned modules for WWII desert, Normandy and a solitaire modules.

For a deeper dive, the series rules are here:

Johannes "Honus" Wagner
"The Flying Dutchman"
Shortstop: Pittsburgh Pirates 1900-1917
Rated as the 2nd most valuable player of all time by Bill James.

Good call. It's a great system, both for board and minis gaming.
