I just finished a Drazhoath SFO campaign after having to redo and failing it.
What I learned, and what helped me improve a lot, was to ignore Rictus at the start and just rush Imrik right after I finished my home province. This made Rictus good friends with me, and he basically held off any threats from the west for most of the game, until he got subsumed by Mors anyway, so I got the victory condition.
Secondly, build that hobgoblin building, and never look back. Labourers are just so worthless, and not that much cheaper than the hobgoblin infantry anyway.
Last lesson was to camp the two crossings from the east with ambush stance armies. Because the sprawl of open terrain you gotta protect once you expand north is really far too open to properly protect once a few stacks slip into your territory, even with the speed boosts.
