Seems like the guys at NeoCore have released new information about the upcoming content. This is quoted directly from the official forums:

"Saxon and Welsh expansions, the Sandbox modes for King Arthur are coming

We’re very proud to announce the release of two King Arthur expansion packs, due in March and April 2010.

Both the Saxon and the Welsh expansions will contain brand new units, heroes and hero abilities as well as completely new objectives and lots of never seen quests.
What’s even more important, they’ll include a new economic system redesigned for a totally new campaign structure, where you’ll be able to play in sandbox mode being either the Christian king or the monarch following the ways of the Old Faith. The expansions will have a complex diplomatic system, campaign winning conditions that can be set by the player and an absolutely free, non-story-based gameplay.

Stay tuned for more info during the next few weeks."

"Hi,
We don’t post too much on the forum nowadays. Sorry for that and please give some time for us. We’re a pretty small team and we’re working on King Arthur night and day but I promise we will post more in the future. Now let me tell you some about our current work and plans.
We’re testing and will frequently update King Arthur and we're very grateful for posting your ideas and the feedback about the bugs.
AND ALSO we’re developing two big DLCs at the moment, the Saxon and Welsh “sandbox mode” campaigns including diplomacy, new heroes, units, artifacts and many more. Both are expected during this spring. I’ll bring more details some later.
AND THEN something cool will come. How about continuing the main campaign? Fighting battles with your skilled heroes and armies against new enemies? Well, if you wish - you can.
The lost V. Legion from the otherworld or the monster hordes of Orkney sounds like some challenge to me :D

Be back to you soon. Stay tuned and have a lot of fun."


This certainly looks most promising!

Me, aswell as some other people that I know of, are still waiting for Neocore to stabilise the crashing issues. They were showing great care with our concerns in the beginning, but their rythm simply halted so abruptly only to release a couple of DLC and no fixes. Still hoping though, as this game has so much potential. Stay well everybody!
