IBFD6.0
For all who like historical tactical games
For all who like late antiquity
For all who think Rome Total War and Barbarian Invasion are not good enough...
Try the BI mod Invasio Barbarorum Flagellum Dei
It really rocks - I bet you wont play the normal RTW/BI anymore.
You could compare the mods quality with Rome Total Realism - Id say its even better.
And - best of all: Its easy to install: no editing needed, just like installing a game.
All you need is the patched BI version.
the year is 410AD, the Roman Garrison in Britannia was shipped to Gaul by Constantine III, the usurper. Britannia, beset by raiding Picts and Saxons, asks for help from the Roman Emperor in the West, but was told to fend for themselves.
The Western half of the Empire is beset by it's own troubles, aside from the Amy of Constantine III which had overrun Gaul, the Vandals and Alans have reached Iberia, the Visigoths are at the gates of Rome, the Burgundii at the borders. These Germans have been driven westward by a great host - the Hunnic hordes, sweeping everything in their path, they now stand outside the gates of the Lombardi capital, and will start inroads into the West Empire and the East Empire very soon.
The East Roman Empire is beset by the Ostrogoths, also driven west by the Huns, and to the east the great Empire of the Sassanids, with their great cataphract cavalry. But the Sassanids are also being torn apart in the East by the Hephthalites, another great nomad horde.
No one is safe, the world is in turmoil, there is no knowing how it will end...
For those who are really into atmosphere, theres a sound mod for this. With latin commands, barbarians speaking gallic (better than english, or?), really atmospheric music, battle sounds and so on ... Disadvantage: thats a bit more difficult to install.
