How about something like "Martian Fluxx: Hostile Takeover"

Did everyone see my article about the newest version of Fluxx we're working 
on?

My alpha-test deck has been getting great reactions and we're all pretty 
excited about it here.

However, there is one element we have doubts about: the name. While Zombies 
are obviously hot stuff in today's market, Martians are a little 
old-fashioned. I don't want to change the game itself... it's designed 
around the idea that these invaders are from Mars in the classic style -- 
never mind what NASA may think they know about the Red Planet.

But we could still choose a different name... after all, the name Martian 
Fluxx doesn't even convey the idea that these are nasty Earth-Conquering 
Martians! Also of course, since we have Martian Coasters and Martian Chess 
it's likely to be a little confusing. So I'm becoming more and more 
inclined to choose another name before we get any further along in the 
product's development.

My favorite candidate at the moment is Invasion Fluxx. What do YOU think?

Here are some of the other ideas we've been kicking around:
 Alien Fluxx
 Area 51 Fluxx
 Fluxx Invaders
 Invasion from Mars Fluxx
 Fluxx: Invasion
 Plan Fluxx from Outer Space
 Flying Saucer Fluxx
 Tripod Fluxx
 Conquest of the Earth Fluxx
 Under the Alien Boot-heel Fluxx
 UFO Fluxx

Anybody got any other ideas we should be considering?
