Warlords: first expansion pack announced
See CFC front page.
That's rather early. The game is just six months old... Well, I hope (though I doubt) this will get more people here to play. The actvity hasn't really been "to write home about".

They better patch whatever it is with vanilla version before rushing a new expansion full of even more bugs.

I saw a quote from Thamer @ CFC that they were waiting for Take-2 QA to start and or finish testing it. Kind of reminds me of the C3C 1.22f patching process....

Anyway I agree this is quite early to annouce it. They still have to patch the game correctly, release a full PitBoss, release the SDK, and I believe they even had more surprises (other than the obvious expansion pack(s))...

PTW all over again... what's there to add to the game? ... Oh, vassal state. Well, they better bring back civil wars! They can add the obvious new leaders and scenario's, and I think most of us could come up with some leader traits as well. This better should be cheap.

Maybe the expansion pack will be like C3C?
Extra Civs and some period based mods?

But, like akots said, they'd better patch the vanilla game first...

Isnt it a bit ironic, that while they claim civ4 is customisable, they develop an expansion that so far seems to contain elements that people can create themselves.
If they do not ad to the core engine, they wont get my money (and since it is multiplayable, I dont think I ll bother with civ4 xp. I am not as fond of cIV yet as I thought I d be)...

Hmm. so another 40 Euro's probably. If they are going to make an addition how about an option to adjust corruptionlevels so it is actually interesting to conquer the world.

Perhaps the new patch and better working Pitboss is this expansion pack.
