If you can only buy one DLC for Shogun 2 get Fall of The Samurai it is better than Rise not that Rise is bad only buy Rise if you are really interested in that point in Japanese history (the time span covered in the base game is more interesting and has more troop variety) and do not waste the money on the factions or the blood pack unless you try the rest of the game and like it enough to try them.
Personally I would skip on Napoleon it does not offer much of anything new if anything once you play FOTS playing Napoleon will make you want to play that instead or Empire.Oh and the campaigns are sort of short in Napoleon which I do not like very much.
The elements added in FOTS are very neat the naval battles and shore bombardment is very fun/useful also the choice of modernization or old ways or a mixture is interesting and very challenging.You also get random points where you must make a choice and sometimes the effects are not always clear so have to go wit your gut and in FOTS you can choose at a certain point Shogun, Imperial,or neither(fun times this).
