The patch to come has some potential performance improvements too, but more on that at release.
From the PR email:
The Western Front Armies expansion pack contains two additional armies, the versatile US Forces and the technologically-advanced Oberkommando West, each with unique units and abilities, as well as eight new maps set in the French and Belgian countryside. These armies are deployed in Skirmish mode, which can be played either online or offline.
The Western Front Armies (bundle) will retail on Steam for US $19.99, £14.99 (inc. VAT) and €19,99 (inc. VAT).
If purchased separately, the US Forces and Oberkommando West armies will be priced at $12.99, £9.99 (inc. VAT) and €12,99 (inc. VAT) each.
System req
2.6Ghz Dual-Core CPU

I bought this title in a Bundle a year ago (sorry Feral), but I don't play with it in Windows yet. If I play this game the next week count like a linux buy?

No, of course it won't. It will have defaulted to the only platform that was available: Windows.

This is why you should always make your purchases through Steam for Linux or at the official site, assuming Linux can be selected as your platform of choice.

Even though im an nvidia user it would be nice to get some AMD support here. AMD are going to be improving hopefully soon and its not good if games don't even run when the driver gets a huge uplift.

So there's no multiplayer support between Linux and Windows?

Hmm, quite a few recent Linux games seem to come with the caveat "AMD not supported", which is a concern personally as I currently use AMD, but also more generally, we want to have decent GPU choice to prevent monopoly pricing and technology stagnation.
Fortunately, I have found that the R9 290 I use seems to work fine with most new games, but there are still one or two that exhibit GPU faults.

Unless I'm seeing things I already have the Western Front Armies DLC installed & have since May last year, am I missing some important info somewhere?
