    How do you guys deal with raids, storage, protection and other stuff, I can't imagine my game without at least medieval tech level

    20 points Real-Armadillo-544

    Raids - Animals, traps, micromanagement Storage - Only make what you’ll need, keep a pemmican stockpile. Also makes it easier to pack up and run if need be.

    And that’s before VPsycastsE, a whole colony of psychic cavemen is awesome.

    I think I have more tribal caravan runs than any other style of play. Very fun

    i mean, tribal and industrial are the only vanilla tech levels and both have full mechanical support

    being able to turn everyone into a max level psycaster is pretty fun

    and the drum circle is vastly superior to the disco ball and music boxes

    also some of the tribal weapons are pretty solid, like the pila

    The pila? The wind up is so long I always ignored it. If anything, I'd always early spam recurves and move to greatbows when I didn't want prisoners anymore. Is the pila actually good?

    it does a surprising amount of damage and has the highest stagger stat in the game, which lets them stagger anything the size of (or smaller than) a moose

    I'm guessing they're talking about Vanilla Factions Expanded Tribal. Before the culture technology which unlocks the research job and advances you from the animal tech level to neolithic, you have to use a ritual which gives research points on completion

    I like tribal for the same reason, but with no way to update your researching stage (always neolitic or something like that), mid-end game investigations take EONS to complete.
