So I recently re-installed this game after a while of not playing. The install was complete, and the files for these buildings are present in the game files.
I started a single player match as Assyrians, and all went fine until I reached the Bronze Age. There were no new buildings to build, aside from basic walls. There are about two empty spaces where I believe these buildings should have been unlocked, but are gone.
Without Bronze Age buildings to build I cannot progress to Iron Age, which is a huge disadvantage. Is this a thing with Assyrians, or is there genuinely something wrong with my install? I don't want to have to reinstall cause it took forever getting all my patches and customs set up just right.

Hahahaha nevermind, I guess I'm just dumb. Looked it up, Assyrians cannot go into the Iron Age.

What do you mean when you say Assyrians can't go to Iron Age? Aoe_Scout is right about the buildings. You also need the Market to build the Government Center, by the way.
Maybe you're just implying that Assyrians are great in Bronze but not very good in Iron?

I guess I worded it wrong. The wiki says "They excel at early rushes but are less effective longer games since some powerful Iron Age Technologies are closed to them. ". So while they can advance, much Iron Age stuff is closed off to them.

I know its really late to reply in this. But posting it for future players who might face the same. As beginner I too faced the same issue and was really frustrated because of it. Only after almost a week I noticed the next arrow (yes, I was so dumb) in the build options.
Provided you have all your aoe files and installed correctly , play to bronze age.
Just click a villager -> next arrow -> choose from the new buildings.
