Almost all scenarios crash the game

Hi,

I'm having a new issue after either G&K or the scenario/civ packs I bought during the summer sale. Any time I try to start any DLC scenario that is not Korea, the game crashes when the Civ load/splash screen (with general civ info on the selected civ) should come up. Single player games, multiplayer games, all work perfectly fine.

The ones that work are non-dlc, Fall of rome, reneissance, smoky skies + Korea. No other new DLC civ work.

I've tried:

  • DX9 & DX11
  • Full screen / windowed
  • Loading normally and also from mods screen
  • Only activating the DLC which scenario I'm trying to launch
  • Reinstalling game (also deletes game cache)
  • Even deleting clientregistry.blob

I remember I tried Mongol invasion before G&K and before buying the new DLCs and that worked then, and nothing in my hardware setup has changed since. Also, since all other game mods work, it shouldn't be a hardware issue in the first place.

There is no specific error, only that Civ 5 has stopped working. Anyone got any ideas what this might be, or are there further fixes I could try? I would wager it has something to do with the voice or the splash screen for the new civ when starting a scenario - but it works when I select the same civ (ie. Polynesia) in single player. I wonder if the splash screen / voice wav is loaded from some different location when running a scenario than when starting single player?

Thanks in advance!

Edit: The DLCs I have are: Korea, Polynesia, Babylon, Denmark, Wonders of the ancient world, Mongols and explorers map pack + G&K

And edit2: Here's event log from Windows (same happens with non DX11 exe):
