Maybe "perceived winner syndrome" is another unseen element that the exiles can take advantage of. Just as the Eridani can be hindered by it with their early lead, then overwhelmed by multiple players; perhaps the Exiles can buy themselves some time by rarely seeming like the strongest player in the beginning stages of the game! Assuming of course that the other players at the board prefer playing the winner, not the losers.Now of course there's a hint of sarcasm to this post, but being the underdog for the first half of the game can often lead to an out of nowhere victory on the last 2 turns if everyone else's focus is on each other. Especially if you have cloaking device capability.
