According to the manual (p68) it's based on both the relative sizes of the armies and the terrain. I don't know
any of the details, like whether army size just determines whether the two armies just completely miss each other, or which terrain in which province causes earlier arrival.
Sombre, you are right, there is huge potential for abuse here if it's not handled properly. If you've got 100 slingers in your castle and you can prevent an invasion by sending them at a massive neighboring army 5 at a time each turn, well, that sounds abusive to me.
