Is this thing (or any license in general, if that could be more easily answered) somehow mixable with the GPL? Eg. that I publish my derived work under the GPL and make an exception for Strategy First to grant them what they want?

The licence says: "3. That if you distribute the Software or any derivative works of the Software, you will distribute them using a verbatim copy of this License, and you will not grant any rights to the Software or derivative works that are broader than those provided by this Licensing Agreement. For example, you may not distribute any modifications of the Software under terms that would permit commercial use, or under terms that require the Software or such derivative works to be sublicensed to others."

You can't publish a modified version of the work with anything that is mixable with the GPL. Unless you published your changes in the form of patches only, and even then, only if those patches don't infrnige the copyright in the game at all.

hope this helps,
