well most of the games listed..I have played at one time or another

but as for favorite, probably that would have to be Avalon Hill's Squad Leader.

GURPS is my favorite rpg, AD&D a close second

Rod hockey! Wow, I had forgotten about that, but it is truly a great “table top” game. Might not be so well known outside of Canada. On a similar theme, how many others played football by sliding a coin across the desk in school until the teacher came and took it away from you?

Recently I have been playing some Magic! It is an unusual card game that is quite good.

My favourite non-computer games:

RPGS:

Full Thrust

Backgammon

and probably lots more I am forgetting right now

I play board or war games most weeks. I play a lot of 'german' style games with friends socially present Favorites are:

Ursuppe
Bausack
Apples to Apples
Settlers
Carcoissarne (however spelt)
Robo Rally
Falling
Perudo

I have introduced many non-game players to these. They are all great games I can reccomend.

I am a member of a large games club in SW London (60+ members). More seriously I tend to play:

Babylon 5 Wars
Bridge
SFB
DBM
Go
I also have high hopes for Fleet Action 2

For roleplaying I used to play GURPS but now I am dedicated to FUDGE. Not only is it a superb game, it is shareware!

As a note, I only tend to play computer games that use the screen as a board for multiplayer interaction like SE4. I do not tend to play computuer-computer games. I play:

SE4
Combat Mission
Stars
Worms.
