What about this: the army with faster strategic move moves first. If the army moves in owned province, they get a bonus of +1 to their strategic move when the moving order is considered. With this chance, armies consisting of light cavalry and other troops with Strat. Move of 3 would always catch armies consisting of heavy infantry.

The problem I see with this, is that it'd force the implementation of third battle resolution phase. Now, the battles are resolved after 1) magic movement and 2) normal movement. Any new system to catch raiders based on fast movement would need to resolve battles after 1) magic movement, 2) fast unit movement and 3) slow unit movement. It'd be a management nightmare.

Without the third phase, how else would you implement raider movement? Sure, anti-raider group catches the raiders, but what if raiders win? They move to next province like first instructed and battle again? Or could you keep raiders immobile by sending small move-3 Groups at them turn after turn?

I may be missing something since I haven't thought about this much, but that's what I come up with first impression.
