Plunder and Learn Resource return change.

So currently when you learn or plunder the loot is available instantly. However, how does it travel the vast distance on it's own? I think it would be fun to see how having the loot come back with the army goes. This not only makes the prov plan a little more for how to deal with incoming loot but gives the person who was hit the opportunity to get half their stuff back via ambush.

This would make plunders even more rare than they are, not to mention the fact that usually you need money/food/runes more urgently than you need land.

Also, how does it travel on its own? They just send it, just like they can send armies of thousands of people in an instant. Taking control of land takes longer because you actually have to spread the army to occupy it all, eliminate local resistance, formalize the annexation and all that. Plundering is just that, they load up the gold in a cart and send it back.
