@Setanta,
Did anyone play Illuminati- the card game back in the 80s?
Each card had an organization, from the police to the PLO to the post office to the boy scouts. You arranged the organizations you controlled into a network based on certian traits (I think they were like conservative/liberal, maintream vs. extreme). It was easy to have the NRA control the Republicans, but the BBB would have a hard time controlling the Feminists.
Then you would try to wrest control of organization from your opponents. The first person to control everything, won.
It was a very fun game.
