You've got some solid titles in there, the finest of CPS1 games. I've tried more than a few times to score a Punisher PCB suicide free on ebay with no luck. Are any of your CPS1 games with batteries or CPS2 games suicide free? If not you should really consider it, it comes highly recommended by myself and many others.
The punisher ( complete hack/suicide free )
Cadillacs & dinosaurs ( Q sound board hacked/ C board running on battery )
Warriors of fate ( Q sound board never had a battery/ C board running on battery
Saturday night slam masters ( complete hack/suicide free )
Captain commando ( suicide free )
I bought these board dead and hacked them myself. The reason some boards are still running on batteries is because with the c board still alive I can change the region on the board by changing some eproms. This might be hard to believe but the warriors of fate board came out the factory with out a battery on the q sound board hacked by capcom.
Dungeons & Dragons TOD ( suicide free optional )
Dungeons & Dragons SOM ( suicide free optional )
Aliens vs preators ( suicide free optional )
I only bought the rom patches for 3 of my cps 2 games, I buy the rest later. All 3 of the above cps 2 games still have batteries because if I can I will keep them alive as long as possible using the batteries. The rom patches are a emergency back up.

Since phoenix'ing all those boards can amount to mucho $$$$,my suggestion to you is to only invest on the ones you intend to keep for good. Besides,you can revive them at any given time,so it'd be best that you wait until the suicide battery takes effect before having them all phoenix'ed.
Your not kidding, that why I am buying the patch rom one at a time. Nobody knows how long we will be able to get in contact with raz so its best to buy the rom as soon as possible.
