It might have been just the overall strength of your empire, but did you also do anything special to reinforce your frontier like build forts or use blocking armies? When playing the Sassanids in RTW/BI, I remember I was able to steer the Horde away to attack a weaker faction, by placing a few forts at the mountain passes, and keeping my frontier provinces fairly well reinforced with troops.Originally Posted by Ciddler
