Balloons are a result of what we call "cheap" forms of transport, but as was stated in a predeccesor to this article, they cost more than 53 Volcanoes, and are the "French Resistance's" response to cheap carrier Pigeons. One is enough to kill off 3 tribes. And if you look closely, they make Beer.

Press Alt+F4 ingame and then send your Braves into a Boat hut.
