I confirm this bug. Would be great if it can be fixed.

Additional my experience with renaming the directory and the two files showed
that this just deactivates G&K. So you can fix this easier by
1. going ingame to the DLC menu
2. deactivate G&K expansion
The important thing is that BNW got all the benefits of G&K except the civs.
And this is how you really can check if the renaming fix works for you:
1. Use the renaming fix
2. try to select a civilization form the first expansion like Sweden or Austria
If you can select them, than the renaming fix works perfectly for you. If not,
you can simply deactivate the DLC G&K with exactly the same effect (at least
this was so on my system).

I'm curious if someone here is able to select civs from the first and second
expansion in one game. If it should be possible for you, please tell me which
wine version you are using.
