There are a few sets of special independant armies that might occupy a province in stead of the normal ones. The great mother and friends is one of those, others are the hero Solaris, a cyclops with a unique forge-bonus hammer, some special sorceress I think.

Most of these have some unique item that is otherwise only accessible by wishing. They can be a fun challenge to beat.

There is also an Ice Druid and Hoburg Champion with thier own unique items.
