Erfworld 127 The Battle for Gobwin Knob, Page 115

[BRC]

The cast page says that Jillian "claims no tribe", which isn't the same thing as being a different tribe -- given that she only recently revealed the story of Faq, it probably means that she'd been keeping her old affiliation secret.

FAQ could be the Croation tribe.
Ansoms capital is spacerock, yet his tribe is Jetstone.
Stanley and Sizemore are both from the Plaid tribe, which has Gobwin Knob as it's capital. I don't think that Tribes and Kingdoms are the same thing.

I meant it puts Stanley & Wanda in different tribes- I was replying to the idea that Wanda might have originally been Stanley then captured by Faq.

It was mentioned that kingdoms split up sometimes, but probably they stay in the same tribe. I guess the tribe determines the "theme" of a kingdom. Faq was somehow far east theme (just look at Jillians uniform and the cloths of Jack in his first appearance as Faq Unit), Jetstone seem to be somehow "middle-age" themed. The other commanders of the coalition look similar, probably other kingdoms of the Jetstone tribe.

I think we need to define "Tribe" "Side" and "City".
Stanley is from the Plaid tribe, His side has been reffered to as "Gobwin Knob", which is also the name of that sides capital city.
Ansom is from the Jetstone tribe, and his side has been reffered to as Jetstone, but his capital city is spacerock.
Charlescomm and Translyvito have also been refered to as Sides, but we don't know if those corespond to tribes.

when did we see Jetstone's capital called Spacerock?

Looking at the cast page again makes me want to buy Sizemore some trousers

And some antidepressants.

For some reason, I still want to see Parson snack on gwiffons and eat Marbits for breakfast while in Erfworld. Did the Luckmancy Charms count?

I think "tribe" indicates where a unit popped while, while "side" is what the unit is actually fighting for. A unit could fight for the king, the city, the tribe or the warlord. What I'm, trying to say is that a "side" is a very general term that identifies one group of interest which is supposed to remain stable for some time and can be described through various attributes.

I think that's over-complicating it a bit.

Tribe: related to the "ancestry" of the kingdom (or equivalent) or maybe city you were popped in. (akin to real world ethnicity)

City: A place where units are popped.

Side: A kingdom (or equivalent) or alliance of kingdoms (or equivalent)

So at the moment We have three sides: Gobwin Knob, Royal Crown Coalition, and Transylvito/Jillian. Each side has multiple cities and multiple tribes represented.

Isn't Charlescomm its own side now?

You are correct; they are so passive for the nonce that I forgot about them.
