Well, a single Familiar cannot gate, at least in 1.4. A single Horned Demon can. Also, the more powerful your army is, the less stacks you will face. Therefore, you will very likely face 3 stacks of Emeralds.
Or am I remebering this all wrong?

Actually you are correct Shauku83. But you can not deploy one powerful stack (mean you will have 6 familiars + 1 powerful stack). The power does not depend on whether you deployed your army or not, it just depends on the hero's army.
Therefore, if you have 10000 Devils and 1 familiar, not putting the devil in battle will STILL make the neutrals think you're tough.
But it's still random, and you may face 1 stack of emeralds. I did it once with Blackies (init 10).

I thought it's a matter of chance? The gating button says 0-1 creatures but maybe it's a memory from an older patch.

Shauku83: I am pretty certain it was possible to gate with a single imp earlier ;x Gotta double-check it in HoF.
And, you arent obviously attacking with full army, are you? Take a secondary hero, give him all your units except 7 familiars right before the battle and voila..
The only thing I have written wrong is that smaller army means 1 stack. Well, it means exactly opposite, sorry for a stupid mistake. I did this trick two times in the past, and I met only one stack both of the times. Now I see I got lucky ~~ Thanks for the clarification, Shauku83 
Well, its much more risky than i thought, then. Still, mark of the damned, hero attack and a proper gating can do wonders! At least against 2 stacks. Killing three stacks with hero only could be a "little" problem ;D

Yes the button says 0-1. I have no memory of ever getting a Familiar out of another Familiar (that sounded weird ) But I guess it depends on the skill of Gating as well, so maybe on Expert that is possible?
But the Warmachines can distaract the enemy, especially the high HP Ballista. Maybe it can be pulled off, even against 2 stacks, with Warmachines as decoy.
