Tribes

Tribes are a major part of Tribal Wars, allowing players to group up to support each other and eventually win a world.

Finding a tribe

It is strongly recommended that you find a tribe to join as soon as possible if you are a new player. While it is possible to create your own tribe, we would recommend waiting until you have more experience to do so.

In order to join a tribe you will need to receive an invite, it is not possible to apply via the game interface. To view a list of tribes, you can click on Rankings and then Tribes. However, you may prefer to view tribe's that have a strong position on your continent, in which case you should go to Rankings and then Continent Tribes.

Most tribes will typically show whether they are recruiting or not on their profile. They will also list the name of the leader or recruitment manager. This is person you should mail to enquire about an invitation.

Leaving a tribe

If you aren't happy in your tribe, it is always possible to leave. Click "leave tribe" to leave your tribe. You find that button when you click on "tribe", right above the internal announcement.

Positions in the tribe

There are a number of privileges that can be given to each tribe member.

Duke / Tribe founder

Setting someone to duke status makes this player Tribal founder, with all powers and rights in the tribe. He can disband the tribe, change its name and settings and edit other players' rights. Never give out this power carelessly. It's easy to abuse the powers by disbanding the tribe or take away the rights of the other tribe founders.

Baron / Tribal aristocracy

Barons can set privileges and titles of other members and disband members. This power should also only be given out with care, as with those rights could disband all members of your tribe.

Invite

The player can invite others to the tribe.

Diplomacy

The player can change the tribal profile and set diplomacy.

Circular mail

The player can send messages to the entire tribe. However, to send a message to more than three players, a Premium Account is required.

Moderator in the tribal forum

This right allows the player to edit and delete posts in the tribal forum.

Hidden forums

The player can see hidden forums that are invisible to normal tribal members.

Forums for trustable members

The player can see forums that are visible only to trustable members, but not hidden forums.
