The Fall of Rome Modfoldered version 1.0 (Standalone) file

This is the modfoldered version of the mod The Fall of Rome, overhaul of Rome - Total War Barbarian Invasion. It's fully standalone and doesn't require any additional downloads. And it's a modfoldered version, which means it won't conflict with your original game files or other mods.
If you have any difficulties installing the mod, find me in our Rome - Total War Discord Community: Discord.com
Many thanks to original mod team, especially Razor who kindly offered a permission to release this version to the public.

INSTALLATION

For CD/unlocked version of RTW Gold, simply unpack the archive, copy Fall_of_Rome folder to your Rome - Total War folder and run Start Fall of Rome.bat in Rome - Total War/Fall_of_Rome folder to launch the mod.

With Steam, it's a little bit more complicated, please read the following guide by Suppanut how to run RTW-BI mods on Steam: Moddb.com (the guide is for Extended Cultures V but everything is relevant for any Barbarian Invasion mod on Steam; just remember to use "Fall_of_Rome" folder name instead of "xc5" from the instructions.

The modfoldered version includes Joar's late roman ancillaries, some fixes by 5alice (see below) and improvements and bugfixes added by me (Lanjane). The modfoldered version is uploaded thanks to the kind permission from one of the mod creators, Razor (https://www.twcenter.net/forums/member.php?270-Razor)
