Google Earth War

You can play war on Google Earth with GEWar. The FAQ outlines the basic idea behind the game:

“You build armies to go around the world and capture cities. The cities all have a “value”, which is based on their population. The total value of all of the cities in your control is called your “total value”. The person with the highest “total value” is the one that is currently winning the game (and on top of the top players list). You can attack (and capture) cities using your armies. Armies (and other items) can be purchased using “Geos” that you can earn.”

It’s Risk without the copyright infringement, as a Digg commenter writes.
