Introduction
The original INVASIO BARBARORVM, set in 410 AD, with the Goths in the outskirts of Rome, the Vandals in Spain, the Huns sweeping the east like a storm, and all of Gaul under the usurper Constantine III.

History
INVASIO BARBARORVM is a series of mods for BI focusing on the Late Roman Empire, roughly speaking from the 3rd to the 5th centuries AD. The mod was originally founded by Attila Reloaded and initially consisted of gradual replacement of new made units. As the mod expanded it came to feature not only new units, but also a new map and new buildings etc. When Attila Reloaded retired from the modding community, the leadership of IBFD passed to Ramon Gonzales y Garcia, who was the team leader in charge when the 7.03 version of the mod was released.
After the release of IBFD 7.03 ( Download ), the decision was taken to rename the mod to RVINA ROMAE, and work on the 8.0. version began. Currently the leadership of IBFD/RR is shared between Gäiten and Joar.
