Tribesman (Going Commando)

The Vukovar Tribesmen were primitive warriors armed with a sword, and sometimes, a shield. They were commonly found sitting around campfires conversing with one another and laughing. They bared a striking resemblance to the Joba Tribesmen of Planet Joba. Also, like their counterparts on Joba, they had domesticated their local Barlowian Saur-Beasts. They were able to mount them and, when riding and wielding laser guns, they were quite formidable foes.

After Gadgetron moved away from Barlow, the Tribesmen moved in. They possibly found their weapons, especially the guns, so they managed to collect some pretty heavy firepower.

Attacks
The Tribesmen usually ran towards their opponent, and slowed down when close, to go more carefully ahead, with their shields held in a defensive position, and their sword ready to strike. If Ratchet stroke them with his wrench, they would block the attack (still taking damage, though, and if hit enough times, the shield will break), and immedeatly counterstrike him. Other attacks include simple swinging with their sword. One of their best tactics were group attacks. If in such a group, they would try to surround Ratchet, and reach out for him with their swords. Some of them also rode Barlowian Saur-Beasts, and sniped Ratchet from it with a heavy laser gun. They could be knocked of the Beast, but that would make them more angry, and the Beasts would eventually charge Ratchet, along with the one knocked of their back.

Trivia
According to the Monsterpedia, it tells that the Vukovar Tribesmen migrated to Joba for new land. They also brought a few Barlowian Saur-Beast. They wore heavier gear and the Saur-Beasts adapted with darker colors, because of the harsh and wet clima, thus making the new Jobian Saur-Beast.
