Hinterland Orc Lords has just been announced.
From the press release:
“Hinterland: Orc Lords†features:
+ Party-based RPG Action – Variety of characters, weapons, and strategies. Will you lead the charge with a two-handed strike or stand behind the armored herder with your bow?
+ Town Building – Choose who will settle in your town. Arm them for defense, or give them tools for production.
+ Character Development – Command an Orc tribe as Lord or Shaman, or lead a Human village as Human, Dwarf, Elf, or even Undead Warrior. Develop lowly farmers into great warriors. Customize your character to help in adventure or improve village life.
+ Random Fantasy World – New locations with different resources, items, enemies, and challenges for maximum replay. Orc war camps, dark elf raiding parties, goblin infested mines, ruined undead cities, and more.
+ Customizable Gameplay – From hardcore game to a world without raiders, you decide the type of game you play.
It’s an updated release more than an expansion, I guess. It’s slated for a late March release.

I guess this kind of addresses your point about imperialism regarding the original. It’ll be fun to play as “the bad guys,” though the villagers in the first game could also be considered bad guys.

Not by me.
