Hi guys,
We will shortly be releasing a number of free new units for Empire: Total War. Today I would like to reveal the first of these - Russian Grenadiers. This new Russian unit is great for assaults and their grenades pack a mighty punch!

Hi guys,
Today we'd like to reveal the second of the free units that we will shortly be releasing. The Holland Guards from the United Provinces are superior line infantry units. Carrying smoothbore muskets, they were traditionally chosen to protect the royal family and have an incredibly high morale, often making them the last troops to break in a fight.

Hi guys,
The third free unit that we will shortly be releasing is the Spanish Guardias de corps. The cavalry unit is only available in a monarchy system and are very strong at charge and melee. This unit will replace the standard household cavalry to add a unique flavour to the faction.

Hi guys,
The latest free unit we'd like to reveal for the upcoming free unit pack is the Swedish 'Lifeguards of foot'
These are a highly trained replacement for the standard Swedish guard. They are often used as a force in a system that defends a monarchy and can be relied upon for utter loyalty and deadly accuracy in the field. Their professionalism is reflected in their fearsome battle reputation.

Hi guys,
Today's slightly late update reveals another forthcoming free unit. The Prussian Garde Du Corp are a replacement for the Prussian standard Household cavalry. These heavy horse shock troops are best used to break enemy lines and overrun enemy positions. With a strong charge and fearsome attack, these riders make short work of those who would oppose a Prussian monarch.

Hi guys,
Today we introduce the Spanish Grenadiers. They are a replacement for the standard Spanish Grenadiers with a distinctive bearskin hat to mark them out as exemplary on the battlefield.

Hi guys,
Today's update features a forthcoming free Prussian unit. The Prussian life guards are equipped similarly to line infantrymen. However their uniforms are altogether more splendid, marking them out as a superior force, in arrogance if nothing else. They do a good job as garrison troops and are dedicated to the crown.

Hi guys,
For the second part of today's daily update, we introduce another free unit - the Prussian Grenadiers. Wearing a distinctive brass fronted mitre cap, the Prussian Grenadiers are an explosive force to be reckoned with on the battlefield.

Historical Mitre hats for Russian and Prussian grenadiers;
historical Bearskin hats for Spanish grenadiers.
Spanish uniforms recoloured from yellow to white (similar to France and Austria). Now this faction looks better and more historicaly.
More variety of uniforms, specific uniforms for unique factions units!
These faces aren't clones! In full details we can see four types of faces.
Faces of new units are better than from normal guards and grenadiers from clean ETW. More details, and more variety: mustaches, beards, blonde, brunette and brown hair (earlier all grenadiers and guards were brunettes):
