Valve's Steam service starts their price cuts a little earlier than usual this week with the announcement that nearly all of the Total War games on their service are on sale from now until next Monday. The historical RTS game series from developer The Creative Assembly is composed of several games and three of them (Rome: Total War, Medieval II: Total War and Empire Total War) are a part of the Steam sale this week.

Those games as well as the Rome and Medieval II expansion packs are all 66 percent off for the entire week and the Total War Mega Pack which has all five games is 66 percent of as well. In additional, the downloadable extras for Empire Total War are all 10 percent off this week. This sale does not include Napoleon: Total War which is available for pre-order before its release later this month.

As promised, developer The Creative Assembly and publisher Sega have now released the previously announced downloadable content for the historical RTS game Empire: Total War via the Steam client. The Elite Units of America mini-expansion costs $3.25 and adds 15 new units to both single and multiplayer modes.

Also available via Steam is the first beta for the long awaited multiplayer campaign mode which lets one player team up with a friend to battle on all of the game's single player maps and missions. The beta requires you become a member of the free Sega Pass program which can be accessed at the official Empire: Total War web site. Once signed up you will then get a Steam beta key via email.
