The Clausewitz Award is presented with the annual Charles S. Roberts Awards.
On June 20, 2025 it was announced: "Additionally, by unanimous agreement of the CSR Board of Governors, Rodger B. MacGowan is hereby inducted into the Charles S. Roberts Wargaming Hall of Fame. Rodger's designs still set the standard for wargaming graphics. Rodger's contributions to the wargaming hobby and industry are both unquestioned and difficult to equal, and so numerous that they need not be renumerated here. Indeed, CSR leadership would have already inducted him save for his express wish to abide by Charles Roberts' wishes regarding the Awards. His passing in early 2025 affected the Board and all wargamers very deeply; the Awards would not exist today without his guidance and mentorship, and the Board and the CSR team intends to continue this aspect of Rodger's legacy."
