The Charles S. Roberts Awards (or CSR Awards) are given annually for excellence in the historical wargaming hobby. It is named after Charles S. Roberts the "Father of Wargaming" who founded Avalon Hill. The award is informally called a "Charlie" and officially called a "Charles S. Roberts Award". The Wargamer magazine called it "very prestigious".
Created at the first Origins Game Convention in 1975, the awards were the "brainchild of Canadian hobbyist John Mansfield." Originally the awards were the Origins Awards but were informally known as the Charles Roberts Awards and it was only in 1988 that Charles Roberts officially agreed to let his name be used. The split from the Origins Awards occurred in 1987, after Fortress America by Milton Bradley Company won an award. Fortress America was not considered a traditional historical wargame by the older members in the wargaming community. Prior to 2000, the awards were given at the Origins Game Fair. Since 2000, the awards have been given at the World Boardgaming Championships (formerly "AvalonCon"). The Award is managed by the Charles S. Roberts Award Committee with winners chosen by votes submitted by fans.
Charles Swann Roberts (February 3, 1930 – August 20, 2010,Baltimore, Maryland) was a wargamedesigner, railroad historian, and businessman. He is renowned as "The Father of Board Wargaming", having created the first modern wargame (a boardgame) in 1952, and the first wargaming company in 1954. He is also the author of a series of books on railroad history, published by the small publishing firm, Barnard, Roberts, and Company, Inc.
As a wargame designer
Charles S. Roberts created the first board wargame for the mass market, Tactics, in an apartment in Catonsville, Maryland in 1952. In 1954, out of a garage in Avalon, Maryland, he began selling it via mail-order as The Avalon Game Company, and Roberts formed Avalon Hill in 1958 to publish Tactics II (1958), the newest incarnation of his wargame.Tactics II improved on the basic game design of his earlier effort, and formed the genesis for the concept of the combat results table. In 1958 he published Gettysburg, considered to be the first board wargame based upon an actual historical battle, with subsequent versions in 1961 and 1964.

The Charles S. Roberts Awards (or CSR Awards) are given annually for excellence in the historical wargaming hobby. It is named after Charles S. Roberts the "Father of Wargaming" who founded Avalon Hill. The award is informally called a "Charlie" and officially called a "Charles S. Roberts Award". The Wargamer magazine called it "very prestigious".
Created at the first Origins Game Convention in 1975, the awards were the "brainchild of Canadian hobbyist John Mansfield." Originally the awards were the Origins Awards but were informally known as the Charles Roberts Awards and it was only in 1988 that Charles Roberts officially agreed to let his name be used. The split from the Origins Awards occurred in 1987, after Fortress America by Milton Bradley Company won an award. Fortress America was not considered a traditional historical wargame by the older members in the wargaming community. Prior to 2000, the awards were given at the Origins Game Fair. Since 2000, the awards have been given at the World Boardgaming Championships (formerly "AvalonCon"). The Award is managed by the Charles S. Roberts Award Committee with winners chosen by votes submitted by fans.
