Amiga titles that would make good boardgames

Just been scouring amazon looking for board games to use as a project on a course I run. I was wondering what Amiga titles the community would like to be made into board games. I myself would love see LaserSquad made into a board game as the mechanics could easily be transferable. Last year a really great version of Alienbreed was converted to boardgame.

Battle isle is a good one to do, as I historyline 14-18. I will film the end results and stick em on utube.
The other year we had somebody try to do closecombat Normandy monopoly.

Moonstone. I mean, the game pratically plays like a board game for the most part.
