    Default Imperial version elites

    Is there anything in the Imperial version that's not in vanilla except for the ten elite units?

    Any way to get those units any other way than to spring for another $50 just to get them?

    What is in there, I'll let someone else answer since I did not buy them.

    The only way to get them is buy them.

    There are two extra sets of units in the Imperial Edition.

    Heroes of the Napoleonic Wars Units:

    Elite Regiment Pack Units

    So, in total there were 15 additional units - plus a pre-order unit if you got your order in early enough.

    As irishron has posted - the only way to use them is to buy the DLC to unlock them.

    Only the Limited Edition has the 15 units (+preorder if you did it). The Imperial Edition only has the 10 Heros units.

    Are you sure?! My Imperial Edition came with 15 units not 10. I think you are confused. Both the standard and the Imperial editions come with the Elite Regiment Pack Units, but only the imperial edition gets the extra 10 from the Heroes of the Napoleonic Wars pack. Plus AFAIK there is no limited edition of NTW just the standard and imperial versions, your link to the 'limited edition' gos to the Imperial edition page anyway

    No, sir. I think you are the confused one here.
    I have provided you two links, one from the CA and one from Steam. How more legit do the links need to be?

    Uh, no it doesn't; try the links again, friend. There is most certainly a Limited Edition, an Imperial Edition and a Standard Edition.

    That may be what's available now.

    I pre-ordered my Imperial Edition and I have the 15 units plus the 1 pre-order unit.

    I don't have the 'Limited Edition'. On release of N:TW there were only two versions available for me to purchase - the 'Standard Edition' and the 'Imperial Edition'.

    The two scans that I enclosed earlier are both in my 'Imperial Edition' game and were there when it was delivered.

    Only the units are in. And a shiny cool box

    Don't worry, wait until they're released on Steam at low prices, just like with the ETW Special Forces Edition

    Ah, thanks for pointng that out. I just looked at amazon.com and the Limted Edition is indeed made by 'Sega of America'. They also offer the Imperial Edition but that is imported from the UK.

    I think also at the very start there was another version available in Austalia that had some metal figurines (or maybe just one of Napoleon) at some silly price.

    It was the Emperor's Edition:

    The links in the supplied link work OK.

    But I live in the States, and have the Imperial Edition (STEAM Preorder) and only have 10 units (+Scots Greys)?

    That's because the five units are only available when the Imperial Edition is bought in a 'box copy' as the blurb states:

    Which is what I have.
