Hey guys I'm new to Civ5 (loving it) however, not sure how to get non-vanilla. For instance, I cannot play or ever play against a Spain or Babylon. This seems to be the biggest sign of playing vanilla. I don't even know how many more civs are available or general options that are available in non-vanilla.
So how do you get to that state? I mean this game is Steam-only and I hate steam but went ahead and registered on Steam and bought C5. I thought that Steam itself just goes ahead and applys whatever patches are necessary to transform C5 to whatever "non-vanilla" is supposed to be. But apparently it doesn't?
My question(s) are do I need to download a third party patch or whatever, and where on my hard drive do I look for it or is it easy to apply. Sorry, so far I just thought Steam would simply take care of all of this but I don't jack about Steam except that C5 seemed to demand that you join it to just play C5.
TYIA for any guidance.
