How to make a faction horde and how to make your own unique horde

Can you make it work on RTW?

Nope sorry RTW does not support hording. If you own BI though, you can add hording to the RTW files in the same way and then run the game through the BI.exe using the -mod system. There is information in the scriptorium about -mod.

I thought there was a tutorial on this already - or has it got lost in the pits of the ORG or TWC? ;)

Don't think there was tutorial as such on hording RTW factions under BI.exe there is my favourite thread, if you want to make them emerge: https://forums.totalwar.org/vb/showthread.php?t=59665
I could have sworn I put that in answers database somewhere but can't find so maybe didn't.

and I did try summarising on TWC Wiki:
http://www.twcenter.net/wiki/Hording...tions_-_RTW/BI
(if I ever get round to converting things back from Wiki code I'll try and put summary here too)

To run RTW under BI.exe all you need to do is add -mod to the BI shortcut see:

though running the revised version from a mod folder is preferable, see:

....which is also in dire need of summarising, as RTW and BI methods got mixed up in discussion - sure I mentioned that to someone before ;)

Does it work in Alexander?

Nope sorry, BI.exe is the only Rome Total War .exe that supports hording. You'd have to get the Alex game/mod to run through BI.exe first, and you might have problems with that as Alex has some higher hard-coded limits.
