Also my advice it to make "every startup clan' start as a Independent clan, and make them declare for whatever faction they want. Make them role play it out, find a factional office or temple and talk to someone at that faction building to be excepted within that specific faction. Once again make players roleplay being excepted into a faction that they might want to join. Also have the players define what they might be interested on startup so you can put them near to either a declared city or some factional offices/temples that they can interact with and etc. Yes this will need some travel and special action use, but it will be clearer what the players want to do.
And yes, I'd like to make factional resources much smaller and harder to get, details TBD.
I'd already planned to make everyone (and almost all cities) start as Independent. Hopefully there will be enough factional options scattered around that clans won't have too much trouble finding a way into their chosen "profession".
