you can use party operations to relocate a party, it doesn't matter the type (a lord army or a town). You can even use map operations to get a valid location nearby (water or land).
IIRC the party spawns on the same terrain as the reference center (worth testing IF it is the case with the latest versions).
VC uses this script to remove a bandit lair that spawns on invalid locations (too close to a center, or in the water, or too close to the water)
