Will Steam have the same price like this?

Well at the moment the game hasn't been released, but GamersGate are allowing pre-orders, which means you can pay now and you will be able to download the game on the day of release like everyone else. Doesn't seem to be any advantage actually for pre-ordering the DLC, it isn't like they will run out of digital stock and there don't seem to be any incentives such as additional content for pre-orders (thank goodness).
£8 is steeper than I had hoped, it is after all only a multiplayer DLC and not a huge leap forward from being a very good mod, but I will probably still get it. I think £5 would have been a reasonable price.
£8 is a reasonable price for a DLC of this size, the only DLC's that i've seen that cost less than that are those little packages containing a new unit or map.
We give you 220 + new units and 32 unique maps, that count excludes different weather versions and random maps.

How are they pricing their games, whoever lives in America, damn your getting it cheap.
7.95 British pounds = 12.62778 U.S. dollars
9.95 Euros = 13.02853 U.S. dollars
Please explain someone....
EDIT: Its just the American Game Market

Well, £7.95 isn't too bad for a DLC, especially with the comprehensive list of features this one has. I guess you could wait for it to go down in price, but that may take a while.
I decided to take the plunge and pre-order it, just hope the community size lives up to expectations.

The good thing is, that the community is already pretty large, even without a released game...

Good, I have something to look forward to then. I've been let down by too many games over the past few months, hence the scepticism.

Well, it's better than Steam's pricing system in any case. How anyone can justify $1 = £1 is beyond me, but they do try.
No need to worry Nordmann, NW will retain most of M&M's playerbase I think (not all will want/be able to buy) plus a lot of newcomers who see the DLC advertised by Paradox and on the digital retailers which sell it. In M&M tonight, I saw two passworded servers with 180+ and 190+ players respectively, then a public battle server with just over 100 players, and quite a few with lower numbers (the highest having 20-30 players). So at that one time there were around 500 players playing the mod. It is common to see these numbers with M&M servers.
Preorder Napoleonic Wars and get a free TF2 hat!
Meh. I'll do it anyway!
