These 14 elite units are on top of the 14 in the large patch released today, and they are ELITE! (and at $3.49 a fair price). I don't mind paying for them, as any hobbyist would pay for elite units in any tabletop match. Thankyou, finally CA.

Okay I gotta question about this one???????????? How can they give you 2 units for the Untited States when its not even a playable fraction in the Campaign mode????????? Anyone else see this as only getting 12 units for the price of 14 units. Sure a can use a mod to play it but why!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The American Campaign, RtI is the Grand Campaign for the US. Remember, they didn't exit in1701 when the Grand Campaign kicks off. Also, while I agree with you Mel, this game was US-biased from the start in every way. They were aiming to appeal to the North American market from the get-go. These units are all in the game's coding, and when CA decide to unlock them, they offer it as DLC...or so I've heard: wink.
