New units coming for Empire: Total War
Posted on Friday, 22 May 2009 by Speed, source: Official Site
Creative Assembly has announced some new units are coming in the next update for Empire: Total War.
The first new ones are Russian Grenadiers, which are supposed to be great for assault, and the devs also want to point out that the creation of these new units does not impact the bugfixing that is being done for the new patch:

The aim of the free units is to increase the graphical and unit variety of several factions rosters. We will also be using them to introduce more balance variety between factions as well. Some are new, some are replacement for existing units in some factions rosters. There will be 11 free units that have brand new models and textures, there are also several units that already exist in-game but are not used in the release version that are being added into rosters, and some factions will be gaining access to units they currently cannot get.
Some people have been asking why we are working on these free units whilst there are still fixes to be done. The work on the free units is not taking away time for fixes, the free units do not require any work from coders just work by artists and by a designer(me). So we can, and are working both on fixes, and on this extra free content for you all.
