I think "sept" instead of subtribe does sound a lot better.Of course, some (many?) septs may only have one territory, in which case one might as well just refer to the group as those in a territory of a given tribe.
Indeed! Only the largest and most populous of septs could be expected to have multiple nunhs and thus breeding/hunting groups. By and large we can get by with Tribe and Sept alone. The third term is mainly useful, I expect, for large, well-developed player Tribes like the Hipparion Tribe on this site(which would in truth actually be like, major Septs in the global, all-encompassing Hipparion Tribe which would include players not directly tied to THEM) which might need sub-division within their ranks.
