Brilliant post.
I find Texas Toy Solider Online to be a great place to acquire minis. While the locals support my paints and specific model needs.

If anyone wants to play in the pre-dreadnought era, I highly suggest the WTJ Store (War Time Journals) for your needs. They make very affordable models in various of sizes! ((1/3000, 1/2400, 1/1800, 1/1500 Scales). The website also has multiple free rule sets for the models (to be honest I haven't played them yet) and it is a military research site.

There is also Panzerschiffe. The scale is 1/2400 and cover the period of the ACW to modern. The ships are not as detailed but are at a very reasonable price. I have WWII ones. I have on my wish list the WWI ships.

For Ancient warfare their is Roman seas. The ships are 1/300 and you print them out on Card stock. You can make as many as you want.
I have used them for years. You can use 6mm figures to represent troops.
