Empire: Total War "The Warpath Campaign" expansion revealed

Total War The Warpath Campaign expansion revealed

Creative Assembly's popular and somewhat hardcore PC strategy game Empire: Total War is set to receive an expansion pack. It will be delivered exclusively through Steam.

This one is going to be all about the American Indians. Apparently they are all upset about this whole 'discovery of the New World' thing, or something. Anyways -- there will be five new native American factions now, in the game (the Iroquois, Huron, Plains, Pueblo and Cherokee). This was certainly an interesting point in history -- strategy lovers will no doubt have much to look forward to, leading brave charges against slow moving musket squads, or firing cannonballs at tomahawk-wielding infantry guys, when playing as the other side.

In addition to the new campaign missions and factions, there will also be new units (such as the deadly Mohawk Elite troops, and the Cheyenne Dog Soldiers), new technologies (such as Spirit Medicine and Dreamwalking) and shamans and scouts.

Repel those dangerous Europeans!

This expansion pack is currently selling, as a pre-order, for only $10 --- seems like a good deal to me.
