-Nerminus (Northern Province, Suehania Border, 27,000)-Suehania: Deny its existence as a nation, all territories mapped as part of the Crayven Realm, kill or enslave on sight.-Northern Provinces: The whole of Suehania is considered under Administrative control, officially, but in truth only a small part of it is occupied. There is one road going straight to Nerminus and most settlements are along or close to this road, some more brave Crayvens go deeper in land, but these settlements are rare. All settlements have at least a wooden wall and most of them a small castle on a hill to which the citizens can flee in case of a barbarian invasion.More to come. Expect people to have become 'Used to' raiding.On the other hand:-Core land: The core land are heavily urbanized or agriculturalized, forests have been cut down, swamps drained, lakes and rivers controlled by dams. The land is flat and free of predators, also reputed to be one of the safest place around the globe as you can walk for days without ever being robbed. There is generally a settlement or at least an inn at each 6h of walk. At every 8h of horse sprint, there is an outpost with fresh horses for the messenger network to quickly and efficiently deliver news and mail. Roads go straight to cities to form major crossroads and aqueducts bring fresh water to the cities from the mountains, going for miles and miles.That's probably your target... but doing damage there may stir up a hornet's nest.

I am thinking that most Suehan raids number about 50 to 400, with the occasional 1,000 to 1,500 Gothi raid. This raid, led by the Kunungr, is going to be 12,000, all mounted, and it will loop around to the east then into the flatlands you describe.
