From the Ultimate Equipment description of Board Games:
> Board games have innumerable types and variations. Siege, a strategy game where players try to surround the other’s pieces, is popular with older adults, while more chaotic games like Wyvern’s Race and Doppel are tavern favorites.
Imperial Conquest is a board game from the new Adventurer's Armory 2.
I couldn't find specific card games, though if I had to guess...
Do your guests already like board games? I love them but in my experience getting people to learn new rules is like pulling teeth, especially when it's out of a rule book. Unless your guests are well-seeded with experienced/enthusiastic gamers who are willing to teach the rules, I'd stick with games that people probably know or have rules for kids. Scrabble, Monopoly, checkers/chess/go, Chutes and Ladders, Sorry, Candyland and decks of cards (perhaps with chips). I would also consider party games like Balderdash, Taboo, Cranium, Charades, Fishbowl, Telephone Pictionary which are really fun in groups. Maybe you could designate a charismatic friend as a "Master of Games" or something to form groups and get the ball rolling on the pen-and-paper games.
If you have a geekier group that likes more modern/European board games, there are a few games I think are totally worth a try. I'd look into: Red Dragon Inn (my FH says it might be too complicated but I think it's approachable), Ticket to Ride, Carcassonne, Dixit (I haven't played this but my FH says it's like Apples to Apples with pictures), Castle Panic and Fluxx in all its many varieties. Settlers of Catan is a bit more complicated but people are more likely to be familiar with it. It might not be great for newbies but I can't pass up the opportunity to plug Pandemic which is a fantastic cooperative game.
My partner is a veteran - He worked in the engine room of the nuclear subs. (He is a nuclear engineer technically but he calls himself a glorified plummer)
Please default to currently serving military. :) But Before the Goddamned Marines get all the credit. I think My partner would love to win this game
[YML] DrunkQuest or Red Dragon Inn
I feel like there are other options too but those are the two bigger ones.
Red Dragon Inn

I'm going to follow this comment up and recommend this game instead:

Tons of fun, very D&D-ish, and super easy to make an actual drinking game. You can always pick the race/class you normally play (if its an option) with in D&D to make it more relevant to D&D, but it's fun regardless. You don't have to worry about messing up a campaign, and can just worry about drinking others under the table. :]
