I was wondering if the new patch affects any of the games, mods that i have, such as Napoleonic and Hellenic?

Most likely it will effect your saves, but you expected that,neh?

Don't seem to have any problems with MedMod 3.11, so maybe there won't be any problems with other mods either.
Just make a new copy, update it, install the mod again, then copy paste your savegames to the new copy and see if the savegames still work. If there aren't any problems, delete the old modded MTW directory. If there are problems, then just delete the newly created copy.
This is how I've done it.

Qoute from GilJay one of the patch devs, says it will not effect mods, saved games it might only effect some battle conditions but it is just an exe so no files are effected...LOS
