Euro Board Games

Hey everyone,
As I was reviewing the events for the Expo Icrontic 2011 I was VERY happy to see that board games will be having its own area. My wife and I have been into Euro Board Games for the past couple years now and have acquired a decent collection of games, but I was wondering if anyone had any other games that they liked, recommended, or just can't live without. Our collection is below:
Acquire http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/5/acquire
Agricola http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/31260/agricola
Carcassonne http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/822/carcassonne
Settlers of Catan (of course) http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/13/the-settlers-of-catan
Settlers of Catan: Card Game (2-player variant) http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/278/catan-card-game
Dominion http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/36218/dominion
Pandemic http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/30549/pandemic
Puerto Rico http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/3076/puerto-rico
Ticket to Ride http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/9209/ticket-to-ride
Tikal http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/54/tikal
Twilight Struggle http://boardgamegeek.com/boardgame/12333/twilight-struggle
Also, what games can I count on seeing at the Expo? I'm always on the lookout for new ones and would love to get a chance to learn it before I come out and get owned.

I run the boardgames events at Epic. I'm glad to see another participant who is excited about playing Euro boardgames.
I'll be starting a thread soon about boardgaming at this years Epic, and I'll be taking requests for what to bring along in addition to the standard must-haves. Looks like you're already getting a good collection going. As a fellow collector, you might want to think about tracking your collection with Boardgamegeek.
If you want to check out my collection, it's behind the butterfly link in my sig, although I haven't updated in a few months, so there are about 6 titles not listed yet. I suppose I should get on that.
Yeah, I try to keep my BGG account as up to date as possible. My wife just picked up Forbidden Island last night, but we've been in the midst of learning Twilight Struggle for the last couple months. I love the game, but it's so much stuff to remember...
I'll check out your collection in a bit! If there is a game that you don't have available for the Expo, I'll definitely be willing to bring one of mine along to share with everyone, just let me know!
