Mount & Blade: Warband

Aut Caesar aut nihil
Empire conquers way too quickly
On my 2nd playthrough of this update, I've noticed that Rome has always tended to just completely wipe the floor and conquer all of the Marcomannian and Frisian Kingdoms way too early, and with almost 0 effort, my current playthrough they wiped out all of Fris by Day 100 while I was still working my way up. While I understand that Rome at the time easily could, they didn't because it was just not worth occupying to them. Whenever the Marcomanni or Fris take Colonia Agrippina or Mogontiacum, they only sack it and leave, not occupy. The only real territory the Roman AI can lose is Trapezus and Melitene to Parthia. I'm concerned mostly because when I become Caesar, *I* want to be the one to conquer Magna Germania because of the quest you receive when you talk to your advisors in the Domus Augusti, it kind of blows that Germania gets conquered before I can do that.

Is it possible to give the Roman AI a preference to just sacking the Germanic/Britannic cities and leaving to the player can personally conquer it if they so wish? This way the borders stay somewhat the same long enough for the player to still have something to do once they usurp the Empire.

Easy to take. Hard to hold. Keep playing, you'll probably see it revolt and become ready for conquest again.
