Recommendations for strategic board games

Hi all. Looking to get my sister a board game. She has (and enjoys) Ticket to Ride, Pandemic, Catan and Carcassonne.

She doesn’t like risk.

Can anyone recommend a game??

Pandemic legacy is a mean as game if she enjoyed regular pandemic.
Dead of winter where you play a band of survivors trying to make it through the zombie apocalypse.

My own favourite board game is Kingmaker. Pretty sure it's out of print now but it is might craic.

What about an expansion pack for Ticket to Ride or Carcassonne, if she hasn't got them already? There are a number of options. For example, TTR has map packs where the maps are designed better for 2-3 players?

Look into Smallworld. Really good strategy game that is different each time due to the huge range of races and the combinations of powers.
