In the gaming world, we call that a free for all. Nothing like a seven or eight sided conflict to make a deployment really really interesting, but that's the way it rolled in Beirut in the 1980s.

Just my opinion, this one is on a much larger scale. Perhaps it is the dark,side ifmthenforce tugging at my psyche, but man, do I see some serious business opportunities in that game for those with the balls to play, not to mention some serious individualistic hero shit like rescuing pockets of Chistian refugees.
