Tribal Wildlings

[Slavicist]

Wildling had shortly been tribal, which for me is perfect setting for them (lack of money, raising armies); AFAIK some of the hill tribes south of the wall could be too in my opinion.

What are your opinions and arguments AGAINST and IN FAVOR?

It just caused unnecessary complications with them and didn't really add anything to them

tribal bad

feudal good

How about the relevance of prestige and cash?

I definitely agree about the hill clans. They should be tribals who can raid.

Indeed. That brings the whole despising the Lords of The Vale situation. Plus, http://awoiaf.westeros.org/index.php/Free_folk#Raiding

But they don't actually hold any land, do they? And we are talking about the clansmen in the Vale and not the North, right? I get the two mixed up sometimes.

Hill Clans = Vale

Mountain Clans = North

i think it makes a lot of sense to make them tribal

As they said it caused complications which from what I can best guess means it's a pain in the ass, especially you have situations where the Wildling lands are conquered by a Nights King, the North itself or the Iron Born due to tribal holdings and if they got feudalised and the wildlings somehow take their land back they can't retribalise.

So what if they upgrade to feudal? That doesn't sound like a complication..? They are feudal now anyways.
