How do I add unit to settlement???????????

Welcome to Rome Total War

There are two ways:

1.) Open the training screen in the settlement and train a unit. When the unit is trained (usually by the next turn), it will appear in your settlement.

2.) Left-click on a unit which is not in the settlement. Hover your mouse over the settlement. You will see your cursor change from a pointer to two moving arrows. Right-click on the settlement. You will see a multi-colored path line between your unit and the settlement; and the unit will begin moving on the path line towards the settlement. If the unit is close enough, the path line will be only one color and your unit will get to the settlement immediately. Otherwise it takes several turns, the number of turns corresponding to the number of colors in the path line.

Have you played the tutorial? It is short. It is fun. And it will teach you what I just wrote, plus a lot of other more important stuff.

If you mean giving a faction more units at the start of the game, you want to modify descr_strat.txt. It's located in the data/world/maps/campaign/imperial_campaign folder. For the Julii faction, the first army looks like this:
character Flavius Julius, named character, leader, age 47, , x 89, y 82
traits GoodCommander 2 , NaturalMilitarySkill 1 , GoodDefender 1 , PoliticsSkill 3 , GoodAdministrator 2 , Austere 1
ancillaries aged_retainer
army
unit roman generals guard cavalry early exp 1 armour 0 weapon_lvl 0
unit roman hastati exp 1 armour 0 weapon_lvl 0
unit roman hastati exp 1 armour 0 weapon_lvl 0
unit roman triarii exp 1 armour 0 weapon_lvl 0
unit roman archer exp 1 armour 0 weapon_lvl 0

Simply add more "unit" lines underneath the last one in an army and stick to the basic formatting (tabs).
