Do Strat-O-Matic, APBA, Pursue the Pennant count? They were played with dice! I play trivial pursuit fairly regularly with friends.

I've played Settlers of Catan a few times. Always happens to be when my wife and I get together with my best friend and his wife. By the time we start playing, me and him have had way too much to drink. My inability to grasp the game while inebriated always makes for an interesting night
My wife's family likes to play Apples to Apples. And they do it without drinking.
Worst game ever.
Risk and Scrabble!

I love Risk. Even downloaded the app on my ipad.
Stratego used to be a favorite when I was younger. Such a fun game to play.
The only thing that annoyed me about Risk is that there seemed to always be secret alliances forming between two different players. I guess that is the reality of world domination
Whatever you do, do your best to not allow the struggles of life to interfere with the pleasures of living.
