Some more RTS goodies are coming with Tempest Rising: The Veti's Wrath DLC arriving September 29th, and everyone can play the Veti free in multiplayer. They're only charging for the story campaign which seems nice, keeps all the online players together instead of splitting them.

What is Tempest Rising? Classic RTS action meets modern production. Inspired by RTS greats of the 90s and 2000s, Tempest Rising is a classic, base-building real time strategy game set in a modern day alternative history war scenario. It features unique factions, each with its own approach to combat and economy and offering a variety of strategies for players of all stripes, deep and rewarding gameplay that keeps a focus on strategy while rewarding skill, and built-in customization options that allow players to approach the game their way in both single player and multiplayer game modes.
