Post Body

So I was playing a game with a friend and they hosted. They have all the civ packs, and I don't. This is all the legit game, no piracy. We played and there were several civs that weren't part of my DLC, but it all worked fine. Then we had to quit, so we ended the game, and the next day decided to resume. I was unable to join that game because I didn't have the required DLC. Has anybody experienced that? Is there a way around it? I was wondering if it was maybe possible to change the save file and like...edit the offending civs to be ones in the base game. I don't know.

Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thank you.
