What "migrated faction" options are there?

I did that with KH in 1.0 but it CTD'd when I tried to start.

Not Saba? Surely that's less disruptive of the existing factions?

I thought Carthaginians and Israelis are both the same race. And I thought adding Carthage in there will make the new Israel surrounded by 3 countrys which might be fun

Saba are Semitic too, as far as the game's culture traits go, and using them doesn't involve removing one of the game's major powers.

Yeah and the ones who are gonna take North Africa are the Ptolemies, it would just make them incredibly overpowered.

Here's a slightly different question. If I were to "create" new factions in my Roman game, by migrating factions I would otherwise have destroyed elsewhere, who would be the best fit for where?

Basically in 167BC I'll be taking Epeiros' lands off them. But that doesn't have to be the end of an independent faction, I could move them to some smaller kingdom.

Same goes with Makedonia, Koinon Hellenon and Qarthadast in 146BC.

Some places I'm thinking could be such independent kingdoms are Kyrene, Krete, Rhodes, Bithynia, the Bosphorous, and Byzantion for the Hellenics. I'm thinking perhaps leave Koinon Hellenon in Rhodes. Which leaves two other options.

Kyrene I think should be a definite, because it persisted for a long time on it's own. Besides I don't want the Ptolemies getting it eventually.

Makedonia as Bithynia? They've got a pretty good roster there, and I think they're aggressive enough to retain a hold of it.

Nabataea, Phoenicia and even Meroe might work for ex-Qarthadast.

On another tangent, would it be worthwhile giving the Lusotanii a province in Ireland, to give the Casse some competition?

Thoughts?
