The Paradox account and forum account are actually two different accounts. You still need to sync your owned items to your forum account after you connect it to Steam. We used to have a script that did this automatically but as the forum population grew it put a tremendous amount of strain on the servers and we've reverted to having to do it manually. It's a bit of a bummer but it's better for everyone in the end ;).

We are working on improving the account experience so in the future this should all be smoother and easier.
