Abstract: The notion of a extbf{-filtered} object, where mathcalC is some (typically small) collection of objects in a Grothendieck category, has become ubiquitous since the solution of the Flat Cover Conjecture around the year 2000. We introduce the extbf{-Filtration Game of length } on a module, paying particular attention to the case where mathcalC is the collection of all countably presented, projective modules. We prove that Martin's Maximum implies the determinacy of many mathcalC-Filtration Games of length omega1, which in turn imply the determinacy of certain Ehrenfeucht-Fra"iss'{e} games of length omega1; this allows a significant strengthening of a theorem of Mekler-Shelah-Vaananen cite{MR1191613}. Also, Martin's Maximum implies that if R is a countable hereditary ring, the class of extbf{-closed potentially projective modules} -- i.e., those modules that are projective in some sigma-closed forcing extension of the universe -- is closed under <aleph2-directed limits. We also give an example of a (ZFC-definable) class of abelian groups that, under the ordinary subgroup relation, constitutes an Abstract Elementary Class (AEC) with L"owenheim-Skolem number aleph1 in some models in set theory, but fails to be an AEC in other models of set theory.
