[Discuss] Battle while travelling

[psymann]

Can someone tell me how this works?

If I am in Splodgeville, and enemy troops arrive, I fight them in 
Splodgeville.  If I travel to Blobville, then I won't fight them.  But 
what about in between?

Say it's 10 hours from Splodgeville to Blobville, and I travel to 
Blobville but am only part-way there.  If I am 2 hours down the road (ie 
nearer to Splodgeville) will I be caught in the battle in Splodgeville? 
  What about if I am 8 hours down the road (ie closer to Blobville)? 
And what about if I'm 5 hours down the road (ie equidistant from the two)?
