Prestige also pays their upkeep which saves a considerable amount of the gold they just wouldn't be getting anyway. This further increases the power disparity between themselves and their Feudal neighbours as even with less gold, they can quickly create Men-at-Arms, while Feudal rulers still can't afford to. While Levies operate the same way as the Feudal peasant armies, the Tribal rulers instead use Prestige to create Men-at-Arms Regiments.
