The latest Team Fortress 2 tie-in with another game has been revealed. This time it's for the upcoming RPG stand alone expansion pack Mount and Blade: With Fire and Sword. People who own Valve's multiplayer shooter and pre-order the Taleworlds developed (and Paradox Interactive published) game by May 3 will get access to two exclusive items in TF2.

The two items are, naturally, in-game hats; the Hetman's Headpiece for the Engineer players, and the Janissary Ketche for the Spy characters. In related news, the recently released puzzle game SpaceChem has added three new team Fortress 2 levels to the game.

The official soundtracks for both Mount & Blade: Warband and the upcoming Mount & Blade: With Fire and Sword are now available to download and keep - absolutely free! So, Mount & Blade fans can now load up some tunes and take the epic adventure wherever they go.

The second expansion pack for the acclaimed indie RPG game Mount and Blade will be getting its next expansion pack very soon. Publisher Paradox Interactive has announced that the expansion, With Fire and Sword, has gone gold and will be released on May 3.

The expansion from developer Taleworlds will add, among other things, 15 new multiplayer maps for Mount and Blade. It also adds new weapons such as fireatms (muskets and pistols) and grenades and adds new castle siege features such as blowing up a wall or even bribing an officer to get into the enemy's defenses. The expansion pack will be sold for $14.99.

The Polish novel With Fire and Sword is one of the best historic fiction novels ever written, and is both exciting and quite optimistic. Paradox acquired the rights to make a game of it, and the result is Mount and Blade: With Fire and Sword. As shown in this trailer, it has a number of things that the original two games do not: firearms, much better graphics, and (most importantly) a historical setting. Just taking a glance at the map at the beginning shows you Europe as it once was. Here's hoping the three different storylines hold and that the game is just as epic and thrilling as the book it is based on.
