Sacrilege!
I have to admit the Sweboz Idea has been bouncing around my head for a while. ever since I started my Sweboz Campaign, (which has now been forgotten due to Empire.....). the sheer number of ways it could go would be fun. the amount of civil wars and backstabbing will be awesome, politics will play just as big a role as with Rome, but we can still act like uncivilized savages!
Independent Income and such will mean that it is a free for all. And Raiding will be extremely important (how else are you going to fund that new building?). Your subordinates will have to be watched closely, you never know when one might decided they want to be chief.
edit: The more players the merrier, although if we could get together 8 people that would probably be best. (2-3 people in each tribe, makes things less boring)
my plan was having something like 3 tribes, but unless we can get more people together that really would not work out. like I said I have a save which has all of Germany under control which is about ten or so provinces. if we have three tribes that it 3 provinces per tribe, plus one with 4, (which would show the varying strength)
unless we decide to have a smaller area, in which case I could just let some of the border provinces of my campaign rebel, would lower us right down to a smaller number.
I would say that we some kind of Bidding system (perhaps based on Seniority, or maybe just each of us having a certain number of "points" to work with) to decide provinces, keeping in mind that we shall probably have real tribe names, so choosing areas in touch with said tribe would be great.
