Seleucid and Baktria culture packs / dlc are missing from my cesar purchase
I just recently purchased the game and both Seleucid and baktria faction packs are missing from my purchase. They don't appear on the DLC list, nor ingame. I cannot also add them to my DLC list from steamshop. Can you help please?

When you start new campaigen they are in the successer kingdoms.

They are not for me. Unfortunately. I believe it is a bug in the new Cesar pack release.

Could you help with this CA? I'd even pay for a DLC to get to play these factions. Would be cool to get to play them.

Seen this question posted multiple times now. According to the date of my Baktria & Seleucid faction packs I gotten these around september 2013. What I can remember (correct or not) is that both these packs were only temporarily given as an additional one-off free LC's due to the abysmal launch of Rome 2. Therefore it is highly likely these won't be given out anymore.

Best to wait on CA's reaction on your message.

No idea if this is correct or not, but it makes sense.

Baktria starts with a big financial bonus due to the silk road. Selucids has the entire persian gulf as client states from turn 1 and can get every single unit type in their roster. Wouldn't surprise me if those nations weren't designed for actual play.

The Seleucid campaign (on very hard difficulty ) for me was much harder than expected(!) gave me somewhat of a challenge to complete. However nothing during the entire campaign hinting on this faction not being designed for actual gameplay.

Haven't played Baktria yet, but will do soon :-)

Cheers :-)

if this was the case, wouldn't they atleast offer them for sale? so you could purchase the civs for your self. I would be ok to paying for them also. But I'm not ok for not having any way to play these factions. They are very nice and balanced factions for head to head play which I mostly play - compared to rome and carthage as opponents, seleucids is a fun faction to have. The game hasnt too many major factions, and egypt is rather close to rome and carthage, and much weaker than carthage in DEI - so seleucid is kinda the only faction to play with vs carthage if both players are even skill.

I have contacted sega support but they don't seem interested in helping on the issue. (only standard bulk reply for game related problems and then no more replies) So should find a way to contact CA directly. Any ideas?

I would say so, put it up for sale, but apparantly CA decided to keep these as a `make up item" as, again, for the abysmal launch. Seems like not everything is about the money ;-)

Highly unlikely that CA is not interested in helping, especially when it comes to sales, just try again or find yourself another "customer portal" or find a acutal helpdesk telephone number so you can call them.

Goodluck!
