Empire Total War: Special Forces Edition

http://shoguntotalwar.yuku.com/topic/38896

Im pretty disgusted at this tbh. They are releasing Empire Total War and this Special Edition on the same day with a £5 difference. Why should people pay extra for these few units? Shouldnt they already be in the game? This is insane!

not sure i understand why they are adding extra units to SF edition. i understand having a special/limited edition with bonus maps/CDs, but extra units doesn't make any sense. if they are smart, they will either make them available in MP or not available in MP whether or not you bought the SF edition.

Well I dont think that the extra units will appear in MP as Sensei does say this

Quoted

Once the game is installed and verified by Steam, players can enter their code and unlock these elite units which will then appear in the single player game.


But its still a cheap money making scheme by CA/Sega to get an extra few quid out of TW fans.
