Empire "Warpath" Announced For Steam

UPDATE: Trailer posted south of here.
Sega send word that they will be releasing a new mini-expansion for Empire: Total War, which should allow you to forge an entertaining alternative history for the US, to be delivered on Steam. It's a North American campaign that will feature some new native North American playable factions. Sega tell us that a new "Campaign Map expands the Empire: Total War experience, with 5 brand new American Indian factions, new units and technologies." And that means Shaman and Scout agents to fill out the NPC ranks, and support for multiplayer with these armies. Warpath will cost £5.99/ €6.99 and be out some time in October. There's also a new patch for the game tomorrow, 1.4, which "fixes some minor issues" and delivers two new historical battles: the Battle of Rossbach and the Battle of Fontenoy.
