Kingdoms won't download/install

[desiderations]

I just bought the bundle for Total War: Medieval and its expansion Kingdoms, but for some reason Kingdoms will not install. I would think it would automatically download since it is registered as a DLC for Medieval and I checked the box on the front page, but it does nothing of the sort. Then when I select the option in my start menu for steam, and it gives me the options of all the games I have, Kingdoms shows up as one of the options. When I click it, it goes to the install window for steam and asks me if I want to install it, I click yes and it instantly says it is done, and says "ready to play." However, when I click the start button, it says "failed to start: missing executable," and, just as I had expected, when I check the total war folder, there is nothing from Kingdoms, just from the base game. How do I fix this? The only reason I got this game was to play with the Third Age mod, which only works off of Kingdoms. So, if this doesn't work, then it's useless to me

I cannot even install kingdoms. When i put the CD in it doesn't give me a run option, but instead just says open files, and all the files are like this: 305552_depotcache_3.csd

I installed the base game through steam and I thought i would be able to put in disc 2 next and then get kingdoms expansion but it doesnt work obviosuly

Steam version != Disk version

You can't use your disk to install Kingdoms onto a Steam computer.
What you CAN do is use your Kingdoms KEY to save you re-purchasing; you'll still need to download the files anyway.
1) Add A Game (bottom left of Steam client window)
2) Activate a Product on Steam
3) Next, Next, and type it in
4) and now the Kingdoms DLC should show up in your library - as uninstalled.

One, it's a DVD not a CD
Two ; that is probably for purposes of copyright and DRM. Ever tried to explore a audio CD? Or a movie DVD? You should be able to right-click the DVD drive (under Computer) and run an Autoplay from there - but keep in mind that your disk will only install to a disk version of M2, not Steam.

Three, are you on a Mac?
