The Warpath DLC was released just a short time ago for ETW via steam at the price of $10 USD.
5 New Playable Factions — Play through the new Warpath Campaign or in multiplayer as one of 5 new American Indian factions in Empire: Total War, including the Iroquois, Huron, Plains, Pueblo and Cherokee nations.
Expanded North American Territories — A new, more detailed North American Campaign Map featuring new regions and a new start date.
New Elite Units — Command new Elite units specific to each American Indian faction including Mohawk Elite Warriors, Cheyenne Dog Soldiers, Navajo Scout Warriors and many more.
Shaman and Scout Agents — Two new agent types - Infiltrate enemy territory with the new Shaman unit and sabotage the opposition with the cunning Scout.
New Tribal Technologies — 18 new tribal technologies including Spirit Medicine, the Call of the Wild and Dreamwalking creating a brand new tribal technology tree.
New Objectives — New winning objectives for each of the playable factions.
The Campaign: It's basically a retooled North American theater from the vanilla game, rebalanced to add more provinces and completely redone art-wise from the looks of it

The Time Frame: The game starts in 1783 and ends in 1828, as such all the European factions in America are at their peak technological. They posses a serious advantage at the start of the game.
The European factions: There are five unplayable European factions that share the continent with the 5 playable native factions. Great Brittian, Spain, France, United Provinces and the United States. Some of these factions are rather small, others are large empires, none however are playable "out of box".
The Tech Tree: The new tree has three technological paths, a government, war, and economical/social. The earliest techs can be researched quickly and there isn't a great deal to get as there was in vanilla ETW, likely due to the short time frame the Warpath campaign offers.
