Desert Wars is the corps' way of fighting out their differences and making
money off of it at the same time. The corporate military and/or security
forces fight it out in a North African desert, sometimes lethal (using
live ammo etc.), sometimes non-lethal (much like modern-day military
exercises with blanks, MILES systems, etc.), with trid cameras recording
the whole thing and broadcasting it all over the world -- sort of like the
Gulf War but planned as a media event before it started instead of turning
into one while it happened :)
