Take a look at the below guys.

Now its not up to me when to release anything, It is a decision that mostly lies with paradox and taleworlds.

whats paradox or taleworlds business in this?

[Rejenorst]

TW tends to release a compatibility patch for Warband before any NW patch is useable.

The Mount & Blade franchise is owned by Taleworlds and published by Paradox so they both have a say on what happens in Napoleonic Wars.

Oh yeah, tw has that beta for native going on. So you think the NW patch will be released with new updates for native?

[MaHuD]

Not always, but yes that seems likely this time.

So we gotta wait on the guys at paradox to decide whether we can play sailors or not...

Holy mother of sailing..... Are marine regiments gonna be created?

(Warning: the following ideas are never gonna happen, don't waste your time):

- a powder room, so the ship will EXPLODE 
- after exploding, the ship will break in half!
- if you fall in the water, you can hold on to floating pieces of wood and barrels, and you can swim a limited amount of time.
- if the ship has been damaged enough, it will eventually make water.

Of course, the first two ideas aren't from Empire: Total War.

Done x 7

I just noticed this in the changelog:

- Fixed a bug with some rocks uses in maps, that were not having a colionmesh and allowed people to hide in.
 

No more Napoleonic era Vietcong ambushes?

Well! Then I'll make my own patch, with blackjack... and h**kers, in fact: forget the patch. Awh... screw the whole thing!
