Although neither Activision nor The Creative Assembly have announced plans for an expansion pack to last fall's Rome: Total War (review), the likelihood of such an expansion seems quite high given the history of the Total War series. Both Shogun: Total War and Medieval: Total War received expansions after the original game's release, each named after an opposing civilization. Shogun's expansion pack was the Warlord expansion pack, while Medieval received the Viking Invasion expansion pack.

Today we learned of a listing on the e-tailer GameStop for the "Rome Total War Expansion Pack" currently scheduled for release this October. There's no other information beyond that anonymous title even contained in the listing.

UPDATE: Not surprisingly, the listing has already been removed

Just caught a thread at the com which mentioned the release date posted at Gamestop's site: ETA: 10/17/05
