How to change faction's starting position?

[Lansa]

Well, as the title says. How can I

a) Change a faction's starting settlements

b) Change a faction's building descriptions, emblem etc (for example, changing the Baktria symbol to that of the Aedui)


Thanks

A) I've not ever modded (nor do I care to - I'll let the people who know what they're doing change it), but I would assume you move the region/settlement details in the descr_strat file from whichever faction owns it normally and then to the one you want to own it. Don't change the "faction_creator" designation, though. For a more in-depth explanation, this thread seems to give specifics.

B) Building Description is easy, I think - should be the "export_buildings" file in the text folder. As for emblems ...

Finally. Go to the descr_sm_factions file, and you can change the colour, symbol, and a few other things. That took too long to look for ....

Thanks very much! I'll see if I can get my head around the scripting.
