"Where do Polytopians go when they die? No one knows for sure, but the Vengir believe that souls of the dead pass through the Gate of Power to Hirkthr, the Underworld. To remember their fallen, the Vengir hosts a huge Skull Party where they wear the cranium of their favorite relative." Hello Polytopians, In this post, wed like to tell you more about the Vengir! Pushed into the wastes by their peers, the Vengir have been festering on their rage, pain, and hate for many years, waiting for the time to strike back! Armed with swords, savage Rhino-pigs, and their fanatic adoration of combat, the Vengir have called together their war bands to take back what they deem to be theirs. They ride the ravenous Rhino-pig:
And eat the toxic Thxando Mushrooms:
The Vengir begin the game with the Smithery technology, and start with a Swordsman instead of a Warrior. This Swordsman, as well as the power to train more from the start, outclasses the starting units of any other tribe in the early game. This, of course, is balanced out by their starting terrain, which has much lower rates of early resources in exchange for larger amounts of advanced resources.
Rush and Pillage! The Vengir excel at early conquest, and can easily get the jump on tribes who have the misfortune of starting adjacent to them. The Vengir are designed to snuff out weak neighboring tribes, then use their lands and resources to fuel their war machine, further slaughtering their fellow Polytopians all the way to victory. Although, on the flip side, they can easily run out of steam if countered early on, as the wastelands they begrudgingly call home cant foster much of an economy without support from conquered lands. If you like a tribe that is fueled by brutality and a need for vengeance, or simply want to help the underdog win for once, then the Vengir are the tribe for you! -Zoythrus
