It is often necessary to increase the piece value radically, or alter the relative piece values by a tweaking procedure. My latest implementation is a good example. It is the Tibetan game Gundru, which will be published next weekend but is already available on below link. I have increased the value of the stones greatly. This makes Zillions play much better as it doesn't squander away the pieces. Presumably, there are many Zillions games that would play much better by using the simple procedure of tweaking a higher piece value.
