I haven’t played Star Trek Risk (I’m a Risk 2210 fan), but Star Trek Ascendancy is an instant classic in my opinion. It makes my all time top 7, and I recommend it if you like multi-player empire building games and you don’t mind the science fiction.
Games for large parties
-
What board games do you recommend for dinner parties for 8 to 12 people?
-
Liar’s dice works well for large numbers of people.
-
Cards Against Humanity (or Apples to Apples if anyone is easily offended)
Poker
Been getting into this Swedish lawn game called Kubb, very simple but fun with groups
Wits and WagersThat’s about all I can think of right now.

Werewolfes
If it is a real board game you’re looking for, then Eclipse and her extension : you can play up to 9 players, and it’s really fun. With 9 peoples, it could take up to 5-6 hours to complete the game though.
