The Glory of Rome lays out guidelines for moving the AD&D game to the Roman Empire. [1] In terms of character classes, mages and psionicists are not available, and fighters can become legionaries, gladiators, and charioteers.

The scene is perhaps suggested by the Vandal sack of Rome in 455. On the other hand, internal strife and civil war seem also implicated.

Marcus Licinius Crassus (/ ˈ k r æ s ə s /; 115–53 BC) was a Roman general and statesman who played a key role in the transformation of the Roman Republic into the Roman Empire.
Rome reached its greatest territorial extent under Trajan (r. 98–117 AD), but a period of increasing trouble and decline began under Commodus (r. 180–192). In the 3rd century, the Empire underwent a 49-year crisis that threatened its existence due to civil war, plagues and barbarian invasions.
