Axis and Allies is a global conquest (WWII) game that actually has a variety of units to deploy, so it's considerably more strategic than Risk. One time I tried to make a chess variant where the pieces had hit points, attack class and armor class ratings, special abilities and things like that, but I didn't follow up too deep on it. Chess is pure strategy, and shouldn't be mixed with contingent factors like dice rolls.
