but I like your idea - I think it would absolutely be possible to give visual cues about the progress of the game, without actually spelling out what's meant to be happening.

Basically "the game" in this case is the same as "the war" in so many films. The actual positions and movements of all units on the board doesn't usually matter for the story, only a few bits do for a few scenes.
If you want to make a situation look bad in a WW2 film, you get a guy with a croupier's rake to push a handful of swastikas towards a lone Union Jack. You can do the same here.

I got 11 for the Dutchie joke I posted a month or two back, that seems to be the most popular thing I've ever posted with this account.
