INTRODUCTION
INSTALLATION
QUICKSTART (for expert gamers)
TRIBES®: VENGEANCE is the 12th game set in a universe alternately called Metaltech®, Earthsiege™, Starsiege®, and finally,
TRIBES. This is, however, the very first TRIBES game not made by
Dynamix, the company that started it all. I want to salute the hundreds of individuals whose talent and dedication, whose passion
and sleepless nights created such a legacy. They set a high bar.
When Sierra and Irrational Games took on a project with this much
history, this much expectation, we knew only something groundbreaking would do. TRIBES®: VENGEANCE is the first TRIBES game
with a robust solo experience. It’s also the first game ever to let
you experience the story through the eyes of a whole cast of characters, instead of just one or two. And it raises TRIBES online gameplay to never-before seen heights. If you’re an old fan of the series,
you’re about to have your mind blown. If you’re a newcomer, you
picked a good time to come in.

mother making choices that effect the entire universe, and her
daughter, 20 years later, dealing with the repercussions of those
decisions. Unlike many other games, this story is told through the
eyes of multiple characters, so as the player you will experience life
as an Imperial Royal, a battle-hardened Phoenix tribesman, and
even a mysterious assassin.

with the world of TRIBES and best enjoy this experience.
MOVEMENT
WALK/RUN
Your ability to run is very important. Moving around your environment allows you to interact with it. As a trained warrior, your normal movement is running. You can run very fast, especially down
hills. You also need to run indoors where jetpacking can sometimes be problematic.
Your default movement keys are mapped to W, A, S, and D. These keys move
your armor forward, left, back, and right respectively. Use your MOUSE or
TRACKBALL to look around. With practice you can learn to look in one direction while moving in another. See the MENUS AND OPTIONS section of this
manual to learn how to change the default controls.

ANTI-GRAVITY JETPACK
The jetpack is a key TRIBES®: VENGEANCE component and comes
standard on every armor. It is a complex mechanism that negates
you and your armor’s mass to allow the built-in mini-jets to thrust
you through the air.
While the jetpack cannot provide sustained flight, it’s powerful
enough to propel a warrior over large obstacles or let him quickly
explore unsettled terrain. Your jetpack energy recharges quickly
after use.
Using the direction movement keys (W, A, S, D) while jetting
shifts some of your thrust forward, sideways, or even backwards. You can also use the movement keys to lean while
falling, which provides less control, but does not expend any
energy.
The armor’s energy supply is displayed on your HUD just under
your health meter. Good energy management is vital to your
survival.
Your armor does not protect from falling damage! Don’t use up
your entire energy supply when jetting, or you won’t have
enough energy to cushion your landing if needed. Fly using
short controlled bursts.
Never stand still on the ground waiting for your jets to recharge.
Always keep moving in a battle.
FRICTIONLESS BOOTS (SKIING)
Don’t look for a pair of special boots with your armor – your
armor’s frictionless boots are really a flexible minimag field
around your feet.This technology creates a concentrated sliver of air between armor and ground that can be used to slide
along any surface using your momentum. In many ways it’s
similar to sliding down a slippery hallway in socks when you
were a kid.
From a flat surface or precipice, press and hold the RIGHT MOUSE BUTTON to
activate jets. Let go of the RIGHT MOUSE BUTTON to cut the jets. Notice how
much momentum and maneuverability you have in the air, even when not jetting. Apply jets intermittently during descent to cushion your landing, or leave
them off to maintain speed.
16
While moving, press and hold SKI (the SPACE BAR) to activate your frictionless
boots. Let go of the SPACE BAR to regain traction.
T R I B E S®:
V E N G E A N C E
O w n e r ’ s
M a n u a l
17
Using your frictionless boots does not draw any significant energy from your
armor, and can be used in conjunction with jetting to achieve fast and smooth
movement across large distances. See the SKIING section for details.
SKIING
While the jet and the boots provide good basic movement
options by themselves, skillfully combining them allows you
to achieve speeds faster than any vehicle.
The biggest challenge of fluid movement is maintaining
ground speed while your jetpack energy recharges. Here’s
how you do it.
■
Fly up.
When falling, instead of slowing down and landing on
level ground as you would normally do, find a gradual incline
like the one shown on page 19.
■
When you hit the incline, press and hold the SPACE BAR to
“ski” down it using your frictionless boots.
■
Continue to ski all the way down the incline, even across
flat terrain, until you start up the opposite side.
■
Now hit your jets again – they’ve recharged while you
were falling and skiing – and crest the hill in front of you.
■
■
18
See the diagram on the next page.
From high point A, begin dropping to match the angle of the ground below. Begin
skiing at point B by pressing and holding the SKI button (SPACE). Push FORWARD (W)
to quickly skim along the floor of the valley while recharging jet energy. Use your jets
to help power you over the next hill at point C, but be careful not to send yourself too
high.Try to just crest the ridge, conserving energy, and keeping a low profile. At point
D begin your descent down the other side of the hill and repeat, as if it were point A.
With practice you can achieve fluid motion with your armor by flying up and skiing down available surfaces. Because of the frictionless boots, any momentum you had in the air will be preserved
while skiing, allowing you to reach breakneck speed over suitable
terrain.
Your frictionless boots work best when your angle of approach
matches the landing surface. If you land at more than 45° to the
ground, you may not be able to ski at all, and will likely take
some damage.
T R I B E S®:
V E N G E A N C E
O w n e r ’ s
M a n u a l
19
To let you know when you’re skiing perfectly your armor makes a satisfying
“swoosh” sound. Listen for the sound and try to match that type of angle of
approach to the ground.
If you hear the “thud” of your armor when you hit the ground, you are breaking
your frictionless cushion by landing too straight. Try to match the slope when
coming down to maximize speed and minimize corrective knee surgery.
Never fly higher than necessary. Terrain cover is your best friend
in battle. Popping up over the horizon is an open invitation for a
pod of rockets to bring you crashing to the ground.
Skiing works in any size armor. While it’s easiest in lighter armors, heavy skiing
is both possible and highly effective.
COMBAT
Once you can easily move around the world, you will need to learn
to use that weapon you’re carrying.
SWITCH WEAPONS
Key: MOUSE WHEEL UP, MOUSE WHEEL DOWN
Every armor carries three weapons and an energy blade. You can
switch these weapons using the wheel on your mouse, or define
other keys in the OPTIONS menu.
THROW
Some items, like flags, or balls, can be thrown. To throw an object
hold down the FIRE button to show a small orange meter. Let go
of the FIRE button when the meter reaches a strength appropriate
for the throw.
LEADING
Targets in TRIBES®:VENGEANCE can move very quickly, making hitting them a challenge. To score a hit on an enemy you must aim
ahead of your target,“leading” them with your reticle to adjust for
their speed. This skill comes with some practice.
Listen for a muted beep to indicate you are hitting your target.
FIRE
Key: LEFT MOUSE
Press FIRE to shoot your current weapon. Holding
down FIRE shoots repeatedly, as quickly as possible, until you run out of ammunition. Some
weapons, such as the grappler, have specialized
firing instructions.

ZOOM
Key: CONTROL, R
You can zoom in on your view any time to get a better look at an
enemy and improve your aim. Hold ZOOM to activate this feature

QUICKSAVE/LOAD
Holding down the MAP key brings up a large overhead display of
the playing area with important features marked. Listed on the
right side are your primary and secondary objectives.
While playing TRIBES®: VENGEANCE, the game will save your
progress at important points in the story. This will allow you to
restart from these points whenever you like. Since the world of
TRIBES®: VENGEANCE is a dangerous one, it pays to make additional saves as you go. Press QUICKSAVE (F5) to create an additional save point. Press QUICKLOAD (F6) to restart gameplay from
the last QUICKSAVE point.
USE
Key: F
If you want to interact with something around you other than by
shooting at it, press the USE key. This allows you to enter and exit
vehicles, get outfitted at an inventory station, jack into a computer console, or just about anything else.
You can also pick up a new weapon on the battlefield by looking at it closely
and pressing USE. If you have an empty weapon slot, a new weapon will automatically be picked up.
DEPLOY
There are various tools in your base that can be brought out and
deployed on the battlefield to help you. These include turrets,
remote supply stations, and mines. To pick up a “deployable,” walk
up to its station and press USE.To deploy it, select the fourth armor
slot (4), point at the spot on the ground you want to place it, and
press FIRE. Once an item is deployed, it cannot be picked up again.
The player can only carry 1 deployable at a time.

BASE EQUIPMENT
The action in TRIBES®: VENGEANCE takes place in many different
environments and settings. Some equipment, however, is the
same no matter where you go, and it pays to familiarize yourself
with its appearance and uses.
GENERATORS
Almost everything in a normal base including INVENTORY STATIONS, BASE SENSORS, and VEHICLE PADS is powered by GENERATORS. These can be destroyed to leave the enemy blind and powerless. Some areas are protected by ENERGY BARRIERS
and can only be entered once a GENERATOR is destroyed.
INVENTORY STATION
This machine dispenses the armor, weapons, and
packs you will use in TRIBES. You can only get supplies
from a friendly station. Approach the supply
station and hit USE (F) to activate.

There are 3 weapon slots on every armor, plus the Energy Blade.
Pressing the number corresponding to the slot (i.e. 1, 2, 3) equips
that weapon or item. You can select or resupply weapons at any
INVENTORY STATION or REMOTE SUPPLY STATION. Get to know
each weapon; some are useful to specific situations, while others
may be just right for your fighting style. Energy weapons use your
armor’s unlimited energy supply. Remember: unlimited doesn’t
mean constant. Your blaster shotgun won’t fire if your energy
meter is too low. Other weapons require specialized ammunition.
Ammo can also be easily picked up from fallen enemies by running over the weapons they drop.
In addition to the icons on your display, you can tell if the weapon
is loaded, or out of ammunition simply by looking at it.

PACKS
Key: Q
Each armor has a slot on the hips for an enhancement pack. Packs
allow a warrior to specialize their effectiveness for a mission or
battle. All packs provide a benefit just by being worn.This is called
a passive effect.
REPAIR PACK
Passive: Slowly restores player health
Active: Repairs all friendly objects
in a radius around you
They also have secondary uses which can be activated when the
pack’s energy meter is full.When activated, your pack’s icon on the
display turns clear and slowly refills as the pack recharges energy.
When the icon is completely filled in the pack is ready to be used
again.
SPEED PACK
Passive: Faster run speed
Active: Faster weapon reload
TribalWar veterans call playing in spawn armor without a pack or
grenades “playing naked.” The benefits packs bestow on a player
are tremendous. No player should be caught in the field without a
pack.
OTHER ITEMS
ENERGY PACK
Passive: Improved energy recharge
Active: Speed boost
SHIELD PACK
Passive: Slightly reduces all damage
received
Active: Significantly reduces damage received for a short time

HAND GRENADES

Simply come in contact with one to restore your
health on the go.

GAMEPLAY
Once you’ve mastered all of the weapons and equipment in
TRIBES®: VENGEANCE, it‘s time to take your skills online and compare them against other human opponents. In the SINGLE PLAYER
portion, Princess Julia is a star of TribalWar, a savage competitive
spectator sport in the 35th century.The multiplayer portion of this
game is based around various game types found in TribalWar.
While combat is a favorite element of all TribalWar games, it’s usually not the point of the games. There are multiple ways to score
points for your team, depending on game type and objectives. For
additional information on multiplayer gameplay, competition, and
help please visit http://www.tribesvengeance.com.
SPAWN AND RESPAWN
Entering the game is called spawning. Entering the game
after death is called respawning.You spawn in medium armor
with 3 grenades and no pack. Some maps have multiple
spawn points. You can choose one on the spawn map that
appears.You can also force a respawn at the SPAWN TOWER or
by pushing B.
CAPTURE FLAGS AND STANDS
Flag objects reside on flag stands. Points are typically scored
by stealing an enemy flag and returning it to your flag on your
flag stand. Returning the enemy flag to your flag will not score
points if your flag is not on your flag stand.

TERRITORY SWITCHES
Some maps feature unclaimed bases and equipment that can
be brought over to the player’s team’s control using a territory switch. You must hold the switch for a specified amount of
time without enemy soldiers contesting your presence. If you
are successful, your team will take possession of the territory.
BALL AND GOAL
In the Ball type game, maps feature a ball and goal like oldstyle sports. Throwing the ball into the goal scores points for
your team.
FUEL CELLS AND DEPOTS
The Fuel game type revolves around collecting fuel and
returning it to your Fuel Depot. Fuel can be collected from
around the field and can also be stolen from the enemy’s Fuel
Depot.
TRIBALWAR
TribalWar combines different challenges to determine an ultimate winner. TRIBES®: VENGEANCE comes with 5 default
game types. In each game type, you need to apply your warrior skills to help your team achieve an objective. Most games
are played with teams, so many of the players you see are on
your side and you should try to help them.
ARENA
Arena is basic team combat elimination with multiple rounds.
Once you die in Arena, you have to wait until the round is over
before you respawn.The team with the most wins is the overall winner.

BALL
One of the new sports modes in TRIBES®: VENGEANCE . Grab
the ball and score it in the opponent’s goal.
FUEL
Fill a fuel depot at your base by collecting fuel cells on the
map. You can carry and deliver 15 fuel cells at a time.
Whenever a player dies, their fuel depot loses one fuel cell.
VOICE COMMUNICATION
There are a number of applications available on the
internet that support real time voice chat. Many are
known to work alongside TRIBES®: VENGEANCE, though
the product does not support or require their use. Help
on finding such “voice over IP” software can be found at
http://www.tribesvengeance.com.
RABBIT
A long-standing Tribes favorite, it’s essentially a game of flag
keep-away.
CAPTURE THE FLAG
The most popular of all the TribalWar game types. Steal the
enemy flag and bring it back to your flag to score a point.Your
flag must be at its flag stand in order to score, so keep the
enemy team from stealing your flag.
COMMUNICATIONS
In the battlefield or in the arena, good communications are vital to
success. Since voice communications are not always reliable, you
can communicate useful information clearly and securely using
quick key combinations. Press and hold SHIFT to bring up the
Comm Menu overlay. Continue to hold SHIFT while pressing the
keys to make a message. (Ex: SHIFT-Q-W results in “Hi!”) If battlefield conditions require you to interrupt your communication, simply release SHIFT and do what you need to.
