Over the last 10 turns or so they have essentially been moving back and forward doing very little when I was expecting them to start wreaking havoc amongst my poorly defended neighbouring cities. At this point it crossed my mind as to whether the horde AI could be affected by a similar issue. I tried saving and reloading each turn, which seems to sort the AI Brutii and Scipii in 1.3, and this seemed to spark the Horde into action....
It's early days yet to make an assumption, but I just wondered whether any others may have had similar experiences with rather stagnant hordes in the mid-late game of a BI campaign?

Yup, I found out that too. If a faction/ horde seems to bee "stuck" between two goals and constantly is re-evaluating it´s objectives they can be "sparked" into action by reloading. Due to the memory problem with BI I found out this by chance playing ERE and faced with 3 hordes at my norther border who couldn´t deside between the east bridge or the west bridge and between attacking me or move into the WRE/ Balkan regions.
