All right, we're going to try to do an ABC game (go through the whole alphabet, trying to come up with a word that starts with each letter). It can be anything related to board games: the name of a game, a reason to play a game, a common piece of a game.... as long as it relates. I'll start with A... Alzheimer's Disease (since playing board games has been proven to stave it off... see my article here: http://www.bellaonline.com/articles/art36834.asp)

Fantastic Four, Fantasy Island, Fish...Frogger... <img src="/images/graemlins/smile.gif" alt="" />
can't really think of any REAL games but these sound fun (Frogger was fun, but wasn't a board game)

Jump - as in jump a man in checkers
OR
Jenga- that's a game where you build all the wooden pieced on top of each other, then take turns pulling pieces out without making it fall.

Quidditch word search or Quidditch through the ages - I don't know what Quidditch is but I found it on an educational game site K-5. The first Q game I thought of was Q-bert...hopping around on coils, but not really a board game. <img src="/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

Wallenstein! Wallenstein is also being reprinted as Shogun by Rio Grande Games in a few months.
If you haven't heard of Wallenstein, it's a strategic game covering the Thirty Years' War. It's kind of a war game, like Axis & Allies, and kind of a resource management game, since you have to be able to feed your populace, and also tax your populace without them rebelling, all while trying to conquer more countries. The best part: the rules are simple! No harder to learn than Monopoly or most other popular games. Lots of fun!
