	Attila the Hun - Article from FactBug.org - the fast Wikipedia mirror site
		J.B. Bury believes that Attila's intent, by the time he marched west, was to extend his kingdom—already the strongest on the continent—across Gaul to the Atlantic shore.
		By the time Attila had gathered his vassals—Gepids, Ostrogoths, Rugians, Scirians, Heruls, Thuringians, Alans, Burgundians, et al.—and begun his march west, he had declared intent of alliance both with the Visigoths and with the Romans.
		In 451, his arrival in Belgica with an army said by Jordanes to be half a million strong soon made his intent clear.

		The army, which the Master of Soldiers commanded, seems to have consisted under Ricimer and his successors almost exclusively of East Germans, chiefly Heruls, also Rugians and Scirians.
		But such a settlement in Italy was a very different thing from settlement in Gaul or Spain, and Orestes, notwithstanding his long association with Germans and Huns, was sufficiently Roman to be determined to keep the soil of Italy inviolate.
		The discontented soldiers found a leader in the Scirian Odovacar, one of the chief officers of Orestes.

	Augustine and the Fall of Rome 395-476 by Sanderson Beck
		Theodosius advised his fellow emperor to hand over Honoria; but when he died and Marcian stopped the tribute to the Huns, Attila decided to invade Gaul, writing to the Goths that he was against the Romans and to Ravenna that he aimed at Rome's enemies.
		Orestes ruled Italy for one year in the name of his son; but his eastern German Herul, Rugian, and Scirian troops demanded settlement in Italy with one-third of the land.
		Orestes rejected their demand; so one of his chief officers, the Scirian Odovacar, had Orestes killed at Ticinum and deposed his son Augustulus, granting him a pension in Campania.

		Important not only as a symbol of solidifying the rule of his son, the filling coffers could be used to pay off disgruntled barbarians which had fought for Rome in the past and now wanted payment.
		Unfortunately for Orestes and Augustulus, money was no longer enough for the Heruli, Scirian, and Torcilingi barbarians.
		Rejecting the proffered payments, they now demanded additional compensation in the form of lands in northern Italia, lands which had been heavily depopulated by the invasions of the Goths and Huns earlier in the 5th century.
