To enable emergent factions, does the faction have to be horde? I was thinking of instead of having a specific city or two rebel to the slave faction, that maybe they could rebel to the Original faction (i.e. Carthago to Carthage) even if the faction was dead.

The problem with hording is I can't get it to work properly..

Now, for those of you who responded to my BI hording problems, I thank you but I still could not fix it. If someone could look at that thread for me if they knew how? That is still my biggest hurdle in "the perfect RTW game", and I would greatly appreciate if that topic could be "re-awakened"
