Simple answer to this: I don't play PBW

Being a good sport is not HEX-editing the game for your pleasure.

Mudshark and Hadrian,
To make the game interesting think outside the box. If you have no hope of winning keep on playing. Ally with "victor" with an eye to stabbing him in the back, or generally bettering your own position to get back into the game. When you have nothing to loose then experiment. What you learn from messing around with an untennable position in one game can come in very useful in another.

I say this not as an SEIV player (I only have the demo) but as a long time wargamer and computer gamer. But what holds true for all other games should work with SEIV as well. Of course if it's a two player game then whatever your opponent agrees to should set the tone. And you can always surrender to him.
