Hi guys,

I have received a lot of questions asking about the status of our Multiplayer Campaign Beta for Empire: Total War. I can confirm that the latest code went out to our Beta Group last night and we are making good progress in testing. Additionally, I can confirm that our Battle AI blog will be posted next week.

Have a great weekend,

Hello again,

We will be rolling out a hotfix tonight for the Warpath Campaign, which will fix the following:

- Some artillery shot types being fired from the wrong artillery unit.

To update you regarding the Special Forces and bonus content issue that owners of the Special Forces edition are currently experiencing, we are currently working on a solution for this with Valve.

The reaction on the forums to the recent announcement of Napoleon has suggested there is a level of misunderstanding about a few points. I'd like to shed light on a few of these, directly, if I may.
