Minor nations playable?

I read that if you allow Steam to check the integrity of the files, it fixes everything, you don't have to do a re-install.

No, it literally deleted over half my .pack files off my hard drive. I just copied them over and did a minor fix from disc, its all good.

I have conquered several minor factions and they do not appear as playable on the main campaign window yet. Perhaps after I have completed a campaign they may show up, I have taken all the regions required to complete the short campaign as Prussia, but I have to hold them until 1750. Considering I have, according to Steam, played ETW for 19 hours in three days , and am only at 1727 then it might take me a while to find out.

[pevergreen]

You don't get them. Show me anywhere it has said that.

They are minor factions for a reason.

[Alexander the Pretty Good]

Because CA is lazy? I really can't see a reason. Just put a disclaimer up if you're afraid noobs are going to play them and complain...

[Sir Beane]

CA did hint in a couple of interviews that modders would unlock the minor factions. It will be possible eventually, even if it isn't at the moment.

I am struggling to appreciate as to why they have done this. I was looking forward to conquering the world as Georgia.
