Little Big Horn is a wargame published by TSR in 1976.

Gary Gygax designed Little Big Horn, a war game simulating the last stand of George Armstrong Custer, which was published in 1976.

Gygax described the game in 2003 as "the tactical conflict between the 7th Cavalry under Lt. Col. George Armstrong Custer and the various 'Sioux' and allied Indian tribes. Two other small publishers likewise introduced their own like games at Origins that year, as it was the 100th anniversary of the battle. Of course, all three companies suffered sales-wise, as interested gamers were divided. The LBH game was actually quite accurate, and the Cavalry had a fair chance to triumph, just as Custer had hoped — if they stayed together and had their pack train with ammunition with them."
