A released modification for [[Barbarian Invasion|Rome: Total War barbarian Invasion]] with a [http://www.twcenter.net/forums/forumdisplay.php?f=107 hosted forum] at [[TWC]].
 
 
 
The [[Arthurian: Total War]] campaign begins in AD. 481, 5 years after the fall of the [[Western Roman Empire]], although Britain was officially "abandoned" over half a century before. The former Roman province of Britannia has collapsed into a shifting patchwork of sub-kingdoms and city-states. ATW's campaign considerably modifies the economic systems, campaign movement and faction behavior of vanilla BI, in order to provide a more exciting and challenging strategic game, accommodate the shortcomings of the AI, and better reflect the historical realities of the societies of the era. The battle gameplay has also been changed, with a new experience system, stats, and unit speeds tweaked in order to provide longer and more enjoyable battles and facilitate the AI.
