AFAIK it is possible to link the ancillary to a specific city - the same way as the Provincial Governors are linked.
For example - here's the coding for Governor of Hispania Citerior being appointed when sitting in Emporion, while Mastia and Arse are also conquered:
Code:
;------------------------------------------
Trigger acquire_Governor_of_Hispania_Citerior_Emporium
WhenToTest CharacterTurnEnd
Condition FactionType seleucid
and EndedInSettlement
and RemainingMPPercentage = 100
and IsGeneral
and SettlementName Emporion
and I_SettlementOwner Mastia = seleucid
and I_SettlementOwner Arse = seleucid
and SettlementBuildingExists > gov4
and SettlementBuildingExists < govparthian
and Attribute Electability < 11
and not FactionwideAncillaryExists Governor_of_Hispania_Citerior
and Trait FamilyMember > 0
AcquireAncillary Governor_of_Hispania_Citerior Chance 100
Affects NumAncillariesAcquired 1 Chance 100
Now an example of getting "LegioI" = Legio VII Paterna Claudia Pia Fidelis, recruitable in Umbria:
Code:
;------------------------------------------
Trigger acquire_Legatus_of_legioI
WhenToTest CharacterTurnEnd
Condition FactionType seleucid
and EndedInSettlement
and RemainingMPPercentage = 100
and IsGeneral
and SettlementName Ariminum
and not IsFactionHeir
and not IsFactionLeader
and SettlementBuildingExists >= governors_palace
and SettlementBuildingExists > gov3
and Attribute Electability < 11
and not FactionwideAncillaryExists Legatus_of_legioI
and Trait MarianControl = 1
AcquireAncillary Legatus_of_legioI Chance 100

It would be the player´s responsibility (freedom) to transfer this ancillary thenceforward as nwe commanders would be appointed
Yes, that was the original idea of Atraphoenix, however he did not link the commanders to specific cities.
I'm gonna link the legati to specific cities, but also increase the AOR for 1st Cohorts and give them a name (though the numbering may be not very appropriate).
And here's the complete coding for ancillary and description of the first legion in queue:

{Legatus_of_legioI} Legatus Legionis Per Legio VII Paterna Claudia Pia Fidelis
{Legatus_of_legioI_desc}
This man has been selected as Legatus Legionis for Legio VII Paterna Claudia Pia Fidelis. \n\nWith the 8th, 9th and 10th legions, the Seventh was among the
oldest units in the imperial Roman army. They have all fought with C. Julius Caesar during his conquest of Gaul. Later during the civil war the 7th Legion
fought in Hispania in battle of Ilerda, then in 48 BC at Dyrrachium and Pharsalus and after that, in 46 BC it participated in Caesar's African campaign and
fought at Thapsacus. \n\nReconstituted in 44 BC by Octavianus Augustus, who used it to gain political influence. Perhaps this explains the legion's old
surname "Paterna", which can be translated as "the old one". Then it continuously stationed and fought in the Balkans (Pannonia and Dalmatia), where it was
often called Macedonica. In 42 BC, together with 11th legion, the Seventh crushed the rebellion of Lucius Arruntius Camillus Scribonianus – governor of
Dalmatia, who revolted against Claudius. The Seventh, which had been called Paterna or Macedonica until then, received the honorary title "Claudia Pia
Fidelis" - "the seventh Claudian legion, loyal and faithful". The same title was given to the Eleventh. \n\nDuring the next centuries the Seventh mostly
guarded the Balkans and Danube, taking part in Traian’s war with Dacians (101-106 CE) and Marcomannian Wars of Marcus Aurelius (178-180 CE), with only a
short periods of fighting in the East – during Jewish rebellion in 116 CE and Parthian wars in the 160's. The Seventh was still guarding the Middle Danube at
the end of the fourth century. \n\nNow, legatus, can you lead your men for glory of the “Old Seventh”?
