My favourite board game is THUD.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thud_(game)
Based on a Terry Pratchett book and a fantastic play.
The only problem is finding people to play with.

They just changed the rules of scrabble because Americans don't know any words that aren't proper nouns.

The new rules were not even released in America. (Hmm. I should have capitalized all of those words. I'm American, so they must all be proper nouns.)

Not played board games for ages. Used to play Settlers of Cattan ages ago. Monopoly to ofc
My fav would have to be StarFleet Battles. Though I doubt anyone has heard of that one

Anunzi,
I have played that game a couple of times, it is a fun game! Ok, so it basically amounts to moving your ships as fast as possible into the center and unloading all your pew-pews at each other but it is fun. The most interesting game included Romulan warbirds and the two Romulan players immediately cloaked their ships while me and my Federation partner booked it toward the middle planning to circle up to defend. We were ambushed on the way to the middle by those sneeky Romulans, but they didn't have a very good position so they ended up getting beat up pretty bad. One of them eventually suicided next to me which was mostly absorbed by my shields.
Yay Star Trek,
