If you're sending two armies from two provinces to attack one province, you will always wind up with two battles: One where the enemy attacks one of your armies, and one where your other army, missing the first army, attacks the enemy province alone.

I doubt that "always": Since I love Caelum, I usually start my attacks from various provinces. Sometimes it works, and sometime it doesnt. The good thing is that if one of your flying armies catches the enemy before he leaves the province, always all of your armies join the battle. If the enemy is moved first, he will only battle against the army residing in the province he attacks.

I guess thats due to the random evaluation of movement: Whichever army is moved first decides where the battle takes place.

One important thing to remember is that movement within friendly provinces is evaluated always before anything else, so defending a province from multiple points always works, regardless whether other armies attack the defenders starting provinces!
