I just started a new campaign as the Ottomans and I have one question for CA - Why the H*LL are the ottomans using native American dialogues and event markers
(those on the left in campaign map)?!?!?!?!?!!? I'm getting messages about Austria and GB being at war with an indian lance and blanket as background, and
the diplomatic event markers have smoke signals on them. FFS!!!!!! Fix this NOW!!!!

please make attention to your drummers when playing as ottomans, do they play? I don't have any sound of drumming only marching when playing as ottomans or
maratha..other nations work fine..I know this is a very tiny problem but you would help me a lot..

Sorry guys, but I won't but the warpath edition. I suspected that the native nations would be so similar and boring JUST like in medieval kingdoms. BIG
disappointment.
Just checked tal0780 vid and I saw like 3 different units. Lame... It's all about numbers, just toss 20 units of angry indians in big mob and sweep aside the opponents nope, no expansion for me |

However, to clarify: there are certainly more than 3 kinds of Native American unit types for each Native American faction. It's more like 8-12 unit types for each Native American faction. 
As for Native American warfare, well, in real life, large scale Native American warfare was more than just numbers (though numbers are important in all forms of warfare), and this is reflected in the game, too. In the game, it's about ambushing, and surprise in general, it's about terrain, manoeuvring, timing, morale, and more.
PS, what you wrote appears to stereotype Indians as all "angry", as if they are "savages who cannot control their emotions", unlike the implied "superior stoic Europeans". (In fact, many Native American cultures have a tradition of stoicism, though aggression in battle is a common tactic for fighters throughout history, to overcome personal fear and to scare the enemy - and this was true of 18th century European soldiers, too....) To single out Indians as angry like this, as part of a criticism of the game, comes across as implying a disdain for Indians as a people, with that old "Indians are savages" stereotype.  But maybe
you didn't mean it that way...?
I guess what would be most productive and constructive for me to say is this question: since you don't like the expansion, what would you prefer a Native American focussed expansion to be like?

Well, playing the Natives is a change in comparsion to the Europeans and finally you like to play Natives with no "European Cukture" and all the
other circumstances around them or you don't like it.
Sure, Warpath is a little bit an alcove game and other will or could be better, f.e. the conquest of India by the East Indian Company, but why not this Addon? You must not by it if you don't like it. My points of critics to the game are, that it is a) very hard to play and win b) the differences in culture are here not really given in the units and the settlements etc. c) Only Natives playable. d) the same american map, only the empty spaces fullfilled with provinces and a little bit owner changed. To d) I must ask CA seriously, why this map isnt integrated in the main game and RTI part 4? Sorry guys, I know the answer, because it's the same reason why many provinces (f.e. Mecklenburg as province and faction - now only Brandenburg with Berlin common) told before release are cancelled: The game wouldn't be able to handle it of technical reasons! This answer isn't ok and sorry guys of CA, fix it and give the american map of Warpath in normal ETW + RTI too, because this will be only fair and calm down people! This few provinces which are "spacing material" of the empty places on the american map must be also made on the normal american map. I'm not talking about the new features or units given with warpath and to give them in ETW too! I'm talking about things, that were and are missing in the main game, must be in the main game because they were only cancelled there and not a new thing for Warpath Addon!

Try an unistall with Steam open, then reinstall = my best guess. No new patches that i've heard of coming out.

I am sorry I didn't reply sooner. 
I have played almost no Warpath so far. I will play it more and then I will probably answer your questions.
And., yeah it would be great if other people would say here how they have found Warpath, too.

Lol i suppose there are very few answers, as only few bought the expantion......
it would be interesting to see: numbers of pre-ordered copys of empire numbers of solde empire numbers of solde warpath campaign and pre order number of NTW untill now. That warpath is so silent, from users aswell as from publishers, meens it must have been a brutal flop lol  you get what you earn.....

i like natives a lot! i think is very difficul to win against white men. if you choose eastern tribes like iroquise you have a lot of problems also in the
begin of the game.
