Free Units (NTW)
Imperial Guard Pack
Release: 26 March 2010
The Imperial Guard Pack features 6 brand new units and contains an alternative version of the Battle of Waterloo, fought from the British perspective.
Battle Description: The Battle of Waterloo (18 June, 1815) Alternative version
Napoleon had the feeling he had won the war as he advanced towards the Anglo-Dutch army at Waterloo. The Prussians were retreating, pursued by a French corps, and only Wellington remained. French armies would be victorious once again, and the Empire would be reborn in fire. But the history book on the shelf would not be repeating itself…
This alternative version includes:
- Britain as the playable faction.
- Two of the new units from the Imperial Guard Pack are included in the battle
- The French have more troops meaning that the battle is balanced differently.
Unit Descriptions:
Polish Guard Lancers (France) — Polish Guard Lancers are fearsome and lightning fast at the charge.
