I would nominate Chariots (Mark Biggar), Hanging Gardens (James 
Kyle), Sarcophagus (Phillip Lerche) and Tula (James Kyle, along with 
Tim Schultz' variants) as a candidates for the short list. With a 
little rules editing, I would also nominate Decay (Robert Mundschau & 
Matt Heistad). All of these can be played using only one piecepack. 
New City (Rob LeGood) is also a great game, but it needs some extra 
bits to play.
