My top-10 list tells the tale, pretty much:

Top 10

1. Bridge
2. Civilization (Tresham's original, not Advanced Civ, or anything by Sid Meier)
3. Puerto Rico
4. Indonesia
5. Age Of Steam
6. Power Grid
7. Union Pacific
8. DIplomacy
9. Agricola
10. Settlers of Catan

At this point, the games in slot #7 and #10 could probably stand to be replaced, but I haven't played their likely replacements enough to really push for it.

It's entirely likely that 1825 (Tresham's game broken into Units and kits) would go in the #7 slot.

It's also entirely likely that the Commands and Colours system (represented by BattleLore and C&C:Ancients) or the Combat Commander system could go in the #10 slot; the only reason Settlers is there is pretty much as a nod to the "ur-German Style Game", in which case, it probably deserves to be #11 or an honourable mention, and not occupy an actual slot on the list.
