My wargaming is almost as diverse as my interest in history, but my most-recent big project was the War of the Austrian Succession with 10mm armies of nine combatant nations. I have also recently played many scenarios from Mike Lambo's solo battle books, created Franco-Prussian War armies with plastic 54mm toy soldiers, and fought scenarios from Airfix Battles with plastic green-and-tan Army Men. My latest big project is biblical-era battles in 10mm.
