Space Alert: Play all training scenarios + 1 missions
This is quite an unusual game, in that its is a cooperative game where players work together against a timer to plan a course of action which will see them safely through all kinds of star trek style hazards, Only by successfully communicating and team work will the mission succeed.
The game comes with a CD sound track which acts as the timer and give info on the various threats. Not one for those of a nervous disposition.

Shogun - Get a few games in.
This is one of my favourite games, which unfortunately hasn't had much table time recently. A crafty blend of war game, area control, resource and risk management. Then there is the unique cube tower for resolving battles that is great fun.
