How to Start Modding!

You don't. If you make it a "Mod" and put it in your data folder, it should appear in the ModManager and you can activate it from there.

When I tried that (i.e activating the mod through the modmanager) the game would crash on me when I attempted to launch a campaign. I currently have my mod flagged as a movie through PFM and everything works just fine.

That's weird.
Maybe you should post the pack here to have someone else look at what might be the problem.
Probably best to also link on the official modding support forum so there's a chance CA can check what goes wrong.

CA combined the patchs to make the game run faster. Most likely what you are looking for is in the data.pack.

Give the link above to a tutorial on creating a new unit based on the existing one?
