Thinking of trying to mod BI (a bit) - questions

[Aenima]

Just how difficult is it to make certain modifications to a game like BI? I'm not looking to make a grand mod like EB right off the bat, but I'm interesting in changing things, like number of settlements available, what factions where and combat gameplay from fast and hectic to more drawn out. For years I've always thought about learning to mod so that I could at least try and put all of these ideas I have into practice, but until now never gave it a shot.

So, how difficult/time consuming would you say it is to make changes such as the above for a 'mini-mod?' Thanks

Changing moral and defense =battles longer

changing settlemnts=folllw a tutorial, not very time consuming

making new faction names=easy

making a new faction=very time consuming


there you go

Aenima same here i currently know how to make Units (just text and no UI or any art) Traits and nothing much more

oh and BI is actualy a bit of a mod of Rome so BI is harder then Rome modding wise
