Rogues do tend to establish some behaviors. Despite many tweaks to these, for example, we in Westgard know one thing: Monsters will rally in Sabadell. They just frigging love that region. I tell you, if we could just build walls there... nah, nevermind, we'd never get a chance to repair them. XD
But yea, they often move around too. We've often seen them completely abandon takeovers without us needing to confront them head on. You win some, you lose some, just gotta try to make sure you keep a path back to your capital so that your army doesn't lose many times in a row and that you don't get cut off from your refit centers, as these are harder to recover from.
Realms will need to cooperate for optimal results. Militarily, yes, but also just communicating.
But it's inevitable that the East will look a lot more like swiss cheese than it used to.
