Exclusively via Steam? Ok, I love Steam, but I'm increasingly worried that this might lead to the "extinction" of retail packages.

The Peninsular Campaign Downloadable Content is a new and independent campaign for Napoleon: Total War based on the conflict in the Spanish Peninsula between 1811 and 1814. It was during this era that the Spanish resistance gave their style of fighting its name: Guerrilla, or the "little war".

To get the Peninsular Campaign content, you need to be connected to the internet. Launch the STEAM client and log in with the account details you used to install Napoleon: Total War. Once you've purchased the content, you will unlock the Peninsular Campaign in the game Main Menu. You can check the download progress by clicking on the "My Games" tab and look at the "Status" column.


Key Features
A new and independent Iberian Peninsula campaign map featuring 32 controllable regions.
#
Three playable nations: the brand new Spanish nation and the existing but revamped France and Great Britain, each with its own unique set of Objectives and Missions.

A new, non-playable Portuguese nation, controlling some of the regions.
#
Play the campaign from three different perspectives, each with a unique feel:
The French fight to keep resistance at bay while converting regions to their political alignment.
The British are very limited for regions at the start, but receive enough income from Northern Europe and North America that they can afford to liberate regions back to the Spanish in return for Guerrilla aid.
The Spanish also have a limited starting position, but have permanent access to Guerrillas for effective battlefield use against the French.
#
5 new Guerrilla unit types, recruitable by all nations, adept at battlefield stealth and with the added ability to deploy outside of their faction's deployment zones: Tiradores (Skirmisher Infantry), Cazadores, Lanceros (Lancer Cavalry), Husares (Light Cavalry), Leader (General).
#
28 new units in total, spread across the three playable nations including the British 95th Rifles, the French Vistula Uhlans and the Spanish Coraceros Espanoles.
#
Two new agents to enforce political conversion:
Provocateurs (French and British nations only) have the ability to promote anti-opposition sentiment in regions, incite unrest, decreases turn time for research and passively spy.
Priests (Spanish and Portuguese nations only) have the ability to promote anti-opposition sentiment in regions and incite unrest.
#
A new Guerrillero agent for the Spanish nation: similar to a Spy but with the new ability to Harass enemy armies - lock them in place for a turn and cause them attrition.
#
Political Alignment system which sees the French battle to increase pro-French sentiment throughout the peninsula.

All DLC is Exclusively via Steam.

It is better than having to go out and get a disk for an add-on... but that is just me...
