Unless you want 400 different answers, it may help to narrow the category down a bit.

To many 'wargamers', RTS and online twitch shooters are for kids.

All I like to know about the best war game is this...

1. Most accurate (vet opinion) in damage, physics and interactions.

2. Most realistic weapons (vet opinion) (kickback; close to far range; weapon jams, etc.).

Not very interested in showmanship, hype or mass appeal, just those those items as I'm seeking the most realistic wargame for a change.

If you mean "wargame", I'd say The Operational: Art of War II.

Close Combat: Invasion Normandy Close Combat 3: The Russian Front (which is currently being remade, called CC: Cross of Iron) Operation Flashpoint Delta Force 2 Company of Heroes COD series MOH series Can't remember the names of the old turn based war games. There were a lot of them, randing from the American Civil War to WW2. Some (Alpha Centurai) even went into the future.. but thats more of a civ style game than a wargame.

FPS- Operation Flashpoint was brilliantly done.
RTS- Total War Series, for how 'massive' the wars can actually get. Very much like what you would see in the movies.

"CoH" is good, but I'd have to say the Talonsoft "Battleground" series was the best ("Battleground: Gettysburg", etc). "CoD2" is the best WWII FPS, but "MoH:Airborne" might steal some thunder. As for "BF2", news of "CoD4" for PC is just out, stating that Infinity Ward is moving the series into the 21st Century. Can't wait.

Comanche 3!  Yeah it is way, way out of date.  I think it had a max res of 800x600!  But still its the best military game I have ever played ever.  Comnche 4 was terrible.  I wish they would make a 5th one and go back to the roots of #3 but that will never happen.  The real Comanch RAH-66 was scrapped.

medieval 2: total war

RTS game, just remember a patch because it can crash otherwise, but with the patch is brilliant, only other problem in requirements, 11GB of space and you need a very good garphics card

Although unreleased, I think Alliance: The Silent War is shaping up to be in the running for best war game ever.

Seriously.
Spanning 90 years and 3 continents with 200 real world weapons?

That's impressive.

The last two games in the Total War series.  For the battles, mostly.
