Cheat codes!  That's kinda sad...  Why not just hack the files and 
give yourself the rank of Khan?  It would be about as much fun!

I used the following technique to win the last trial of position for 
the Wolf Clan.  You can decide for yourself if it's honorable or 
not...

I first engaged the Warhammer and Dire Wolf.  I dispatched the 
Warhammer pretty quick, then shot a leg out from under the Dire Wolf. 
The key is to leave him alive, but immobile...  Aside from him, 3 
mechs remained: another Warhammer, and two Marauders. Now the rules 
of the ToP indicate if I engage an opponent from the second phase, he 
can start fighting me.  So, I shot the Warhammer, forcing him to 
engage me in 1-on-1...killed him.  Then, I shot one of the Marauders, 
forcing him to engage me in 1-on-1...killed him.  After that, I 
dispatched the Dire Wolf, officially ending phase 1.  I shot the 
engagement sphere starting phase 2, and killed the final Marauder.  
Mission successful!
