well depends if you can afford an extra £7....if not then get the ordinary edition. If you want extra units then get the imperial edition.
This is what you get extra in imperial edition.
The following elite units are included as part of the box copy of the Napoleon: Total War Imperial Edition. This premium packaged edition comes complete with an illustrated biography of Napoleon Bonaparte and a unique Steam unlock code. Once the game is installed and verified by Steam, players can enter their code and unlock these elite units which will then appear in the single and multiplayer games. Please note - an online connection will be required during installation to download these units. Online connection only required once unless taking part in online gaming.
"Heroes of the Napoleonic Wars" Pack
7th Lancers - France: These cavalrymen are armed with lances that make them particularly deadly when charging. The lance allows the user to put all his weight, and that of his charging horse, behind one very sharp point.
Brandenburg Uhlans - Prussia: They are some of the most experienced cavalrymen in Europe and can persuade their steeds into breathtaking acts of speed.
1st Hussars - Austria: The 1st Hussars are, without exception, superb horsemen, and all have a certain independence of spirit that makes them ideal for chasing down widely scattered men.
15th Hussars - Great Britain: The 15th Hussars are made up of veteran cavalrymen, deadly in close combat and at the charge. Their speed makes them ideal for chasing down skirmishers and for dealing with artillery units.
1st East Prussian Grenadier Battalion - Prussia: Only the largest, bravest men can become grenadiers; this size and strength makes them an impressive sight in a charge, and gives them an edge in melee.
6th Regiment d'Infanterie Légère - France: Historically, the 6th Regiment saw action in over forty battles during the Napoleonic Wars and were awarded seven battle honours for their achievements.
17th Jäger Regiment - Russia: Able to fight in loose skirmish formation or fire a massed volley when organised in line, the Jägers are an adaptable response to enemy tactics.
1st Regiment Emperor's Own - Austria: The 1st Regiment "Emperor's Own" is made up of battle-hardened Czech troops, as deadly with their bayonets as they are excellent marksmen.
18th Regiment d'Infanterie de Ligne "The Brave" - France: The 18th Regiment are revered by their fellow countrymen, who know them as "The Brave". They are experienced soldiers and that makes them valuable on the battlefield.
Moscow Musketeers - Russia: Formed into a disciplined line, they can unleash a massed volley into an enemy then, while the enemy is reeling, follow it with a decisive bayonet charge.
"Elite Regiment" Pack
5e Regiment de Hussards - France: Light and fast, these veterans of the American War of Independence can quickly reach areas of the battlefield where they are most needed, cutting down the enemy with their curved sabres.
Pavlograd Hussars - Russia: All hussars have "dash" and a touch of derring-do in their collective attitude towards war. Pavlograd hussars are, without exception, excellent horsemen, ideal for chasing down skirmishers and overrunning artillery units.
8th Life Regiment - Prussia: The steadiness displayed by the men of the 8th Life Regiment is amazing, and on the battlefield they will encourage nearby troops to follow their example. As with many Prussian line infantry units, these men are incredibly disciplined and trained.
47th (Czech) Regiment - Austria: These veteran soldiers are adept at close and fire combat. When formed in a disciplined line, they can unleash a massed volley of fire and then move forwards to engage in melee with the enemy.
88th Foot "Connaught Rangers" - Great Britain: A little rough around the edges, but courageous and professional on the battlefield, the Connaught Rangers are an Irish line infantry regiment. Whether pushing home a bayonet or forming a disciplined firing line, these men will stand and fight.
Out of these units i find use for the following in my multiplayer armies.
88th Foot "Connaught Rangers" - Great Britain
47th (Czech) Regiment - Austria
8th Life Regiment - Prussia
Moscow Musketeers - Russia
18th Regiment d'Infanterie de Ligne "The Brave" - France
1st Regiment Emperor's Own - Austria
17th Jäger Regiment - Russia
6th Regiment d'Infanterie Légère - France
So that's 8 infantry units i get extra to use in MP compared to the standard edition.........yes i think it's worth an extra £7 for the imperial edition.

I think standard edition is 17 pounds so for 3 pounds it may be worth, in standard edition you get 5 additional units.
IMHO it's not a big deal,in NTW units are more or less generic so you will have fun even with standard edition like I do

NTW is a standalone game.....yes some people's opinion is that it's an expansion pack for empire total war.....but the truth is YOU DO NOT need empire total war to play Naploleon total war.
gameplay.co.uk NTW standard edition= £17.99.....imperial edition £25.99
