This is very, very loose planning but it pays to be prepared.

Parts of it would be applicable. I'd also strongly recommend LTC1, which has a detailed discussion of which social skills and social traits are available in bands, tribes, and chiefdoms. That might actually be more useful than SE, though SE will expand your characters' repertoire of social maneuvers a bit.
