I could be wrong, but I believe faster armies move first. If armies are the same speed, then the smaller army moves first. I can understand how rules like this might make it seem like you can never catch raiders, but that's because raiders are likely faster and/or smaller than the force you are trying to cath them with. Try to catch a raiding army with a move 3 SC and see if you catch them.

If you were right, if an army of 20 Ulmish Black Plate infantry and an army of 20 Ti'en Ch'i light cavalty moved to the same uncontrolled territory, T'ien Ch'i would always be the first to get there. That's not what happen - chances are 50-50. And if the territory belongs to Ulm, Ulm will always arrive first and defend afainst T'ien Ch'i.
