Tetrarchy: A New Beginning 311 AD Remastered

Focusing on the Fall of the Roman Tetrarchy, this mod for Barbarian Invasion rewinds the clock to 311 AD, adding new factions, graphics, an entirely new unit roster, and many new economic and religious game mechanics. Fight for the Romans under Constantine, Maxentius, Licinius, or Maximinus, find a new homeland as the Celts, Saxons, Franks, Alemanni, Quadi, Burgundii, Vandals, Greuthungi, or Thervingi, dominate the steppes as the Slavs, Alans, or Huns, or carve out an empire in the east as the Sasanian Empire, the Arab Kingdoms, Armenia, or Atropatene.

INSTRUCTIONS: Simply subscribe to the mod and the files will download. Launch Rome Remastered, select Barbarian Invasion, and click on the tab at the top that reads "MOD MANAGER". Check the box next to Tetrarchy. This should be the only mod checked.
