Il Charles S. Roberts Award (o CSR Awards) viene assegnato annualmente per eccellenza nell'hobby del wargame storico. È stato battezzato in onore del "padre del wargaming", Charles S. Roberts fondatore della Avalon Hill. Il premio viene anche chiamato informalmente "Charlie".
Fino al 2000, i premi venivano consegnati durante la Origins Game Fair, e fino al 1987 sono considerati anche essere Origins Award. A partire dal 2000 i premi sono consegnati durante la World Boardgaming Championships (precedentemente "AvalonCon").
Il premio include anche una Hall of Fame, che riconosce gli autori ed editori di giochi che hanno fatto contribuito in maniera duratura e significativa all'hobby del wargame.
