The thing I was trying to say was that the AD already have SOME(not a lot, not a little, just SOME) forces in Imperial provinces, I personally believe they might have more in Cyrodiil and Highrock than they do in Skyrim, but that might not be the case.

I would believe that the AD would use their forces already in Imperial provinces as their first assault, as in as soon as the next great war starts, or possibly before the war starts. this can cause lots of chaos, and if unexpected it can also be used to destroy or disable key structures(armories, supply warehouses, etc.)

these forces would by no means be a real army, it's more of a way to distract troops and sabotouge supply lines at the start of the war, giving the real armies coming from Ellswyre and Vallenwood a much greater advantage.

infact the forces already in the mainland would most definitely be wiped out not long after their attacks, but they will provide distractions, destroy supplies and cause enough chaos for the main forces to do their job.
