Am Civil War Victory Games
Terrible Swift Sword TSR
Highway To the Reich Victory Games
World In Flames 5th Edition ADG
Total War ROME Activision
Total War Sho-Gun Activision
Total War Medieval War Activision
1/300 scale WWII armor miniatures

The three computer games by Activision are pretty good.

World in Flames is my active favorite.
Terrible Swift Sword was made by another company before TSR

Victory Games were pretty good.

I left out the games that got me into the hobby, like SPI's Sniper and Napoleon's Last Battles Quad Game or AH's Panzer Blitz or Panzer Leader.

Not in any particular order;

Decisive Battles (SSG)
Battlefront (SSG)                                                                                                                                                         
ACW (HPS)
HTTR/COTA (Panther)
Panzer General (SSI)
War in the Pacific
Civ 4
Campaign Series (Talonsoft)

Next I am hoping will make my top 10 list is (still 2 spots left);

Combined Arms of WWII

Steel Panthers (the complete series)

Only really two board wargames I ever really liked and wanted to play over n over.
 
1. Of course Squad Leader (the origional)
2. Swords & Sorcery (this was an excellent monster fantasy rpg wargame it had three ways to play. Armies vs armies, Armies & Heroes vs Armies & Heroes and Heroes Vs Heroes while playing armies & heroes vs Armies & heroes. You could even go questing while fighting the wargame to get the random power item in the game. That's what was neat no two games or wars were ever the same. Killer Penquins from the North could disrupt or destroy entire army groups on EITHER side. Vortex like tornadoes that could sweep thru raging battles and toss armies all over the map. One of the best fantasy board wargames I ever played. Wish someone had brought something like that to the computer.

Advanced Squad Leader is still one of the best. I for one still buy the modules and mags especially the historical ones. (great maps).
 
Alesia was another great game. Hope in the future to set it up and give it a whirle.
 
Starship Troopers was just as good.[:)]
