Hi Jkarinen,
Yes, I am pleased to say that these invasions actually occurred in the 400s rather than the early ADs so BI does include massive Hunnic and Gothic invasions. If you plan on getting BI I suggest that you run from their hordes! Good luck and cheers!

The Huns and the Goths are indeed in the game. The Huns start off as a large horde that move across the land, pillaging as they go, whereas the Goths are already settled, although usually end up being forced to migrate as a horde themselves when the Huns and Vandals arrive in force.

aight guys thanks i was reading up on them and i realized i put wrong dates and i think it would be cool to be the huns or goths

are they playable factions?

**Omanes Alexandrapolites** · 02-13-2007, 18:02

Yes, they are fully playable and, even better, you get the opportunity to sack Rome!

just what i was looking for but if I'm not mistaken (correct me if I'm wrong) but wern't the huns the closest to rome until they were repelled?

No, the Huns never set a foot near Rome. They threatened it, but that was as far as they went. The Goth's actually had the cheek to actually go and sack Rome after the young and foolish emperor kept on betraying them with diplomatic deals.
