I'm working on a GIS project at school (NOT school mandatory, just for fun) and am doing what would be the equivalent of Cobra invading/taking over the US. I don't know what to call the war/campaign. Any ideas?

Basically, the project has the US in the middle, pictures around the border, legend at the bottom, etc. here's a rough shot of what I've done. This will be printed on a (iirc) 24x36 sheet thru a plotter. Some of you might recognize the pics. The actually image is considerably bigger and I'm working on the project at 20% view rate.



So any ideas? I don't want to use "WWIII" cuz that was already used, y'know?

Operation: Serpent's Coils?

A friend of mine used to have that game! His box was the original printing, where the guy in the lower right-hand corner looks exactly like Saddam Hussein. We played that one a few times, but my preferred Milton Bradley strategy board game was Shogun, which later became Samurai Swords.

Back on topic: Sonn, I like Jay's idea! You almost have to use the word "coil" somehow.

Man, I'd forgotten all about that game, I played it to death in my younger days. I think it may still be hidden away in a closet somewhere!
And G, how about Operation: Sacred Soil?

I think I got it based on Jay's wonderful recommendations.

"Operation : Coils of the Serpent"

I don't know how many of you know what GIS is or how it works... but think of it as an online step UP from paper maps. You can layer a lot of information on stuff. You can see with what I'm working with that I am ONLY working with states and capitals. But when I open the US template, it has cities, rivers, counties, highways, etc ALL part of the information. I can zoom in on the US map and get cities. I can set parameters to show schools, museums, shopping malls, etc. The wonderful thing w/ GIS is that I can see what the populations for 1999 are. Or 2002 (not quite updated). See how many single households there are, single females, single males, people of different ethnicities and a ton of OTHER aspects.

Uh, anyway...
