I can only say I'd have flogged off the whole collection decades ago if the hobby hadn't grown up (exponentially in the case of rules).

Very interesting initial post and subsequent thoughts.

I picked up Charles Grant's Battle early on though I did not use it much.  I did not really get into Featherstone (for some reason I bought his Advanced Wargaming years before anything else) and have only really read rather than played Charles Grant's other rules - though it is possible a version of The Wargame (18th century) may get played at some point.

I started with Featherstone, and soon dismissed them as childish. Now 60 odd years later I regard them with nostalgic affection, but do not play them. I do however play the odd game based on Charles Grants SYW and Well's Little Wars rules, even if I have to tinker with them to accommodate my multiple figure bases. Again this is nostalgia
