Awesome. I will download it as soon as I can get my parents to give me some microsoft points! That is still the reason for me not being able to get OKX...  _________________

Too much singleplayer based content Nice price though, i may buy it just for the new units and tiles 
Can anyone post a review of the new content and how it is?

The new tileset has good flora, finally, and it stands out against the other tilesets.
The new units are interesting. One acts as a regular combat unit. It looks like an ant riding a beetle. He has a lance kind of like the pikeman, but it's better. His other weapon is a morning star which lacks distance but has better stats.
The other unit acts like a catapult and looks like a small insect that is riding a slug. He can launch missiles at enemies.

Not sure. The catapult unit is kind of useless, considering that the fire mage does everything he does, better.
The one on horseback is really nice addition, however, making multiplayer maps with the new enviroment is rather annoying. It's impossible to put grass tiles with sand or dirt and have the other two not look hideous.

The catapult is interesting to me partly *because* he can't do everything a mage can, which means he requires different strategies.
If you enjoyed Maal's story, you should enjoy the new campaign in Red Kingdom - there's a full story with new characters and interesting levels with custom scripted events and goals.
Of course, that's my opinion. I'd be interested in hearing from anyone else.

As soon as I get those points...
The cavalry unit sounds exactly like the unit I missed in the core game.

So far so good. I love the artillery, and the "run" function of the cavalry.
Also love the leaderboards  . _________________

Beating Red kingdom, and the other one is getting all golds for it.
