You have probably heard of the new DLC for Total War: Shogun 2, which has been named "Rise of The Samurai"
Set 400 years before the era in which Shogun 2 is set, this DLC brings a whole new campaign, with a different map style, new land + Naval units, 4 new heroes, new agents and retainers.
The release date is 27th September, so make sure you pre-purchase it off steam! On the same day CA are releasing a patch, and it is very big, so be prepared to have to wait to play it.
More info available at the Total War Blog, and of course in our Forums![This message has been edited by Liam_the_Spartan (edited 09-14-2011 @ 11:26 AM).]
