New Mod - 338BC

Hi,

I'm looking to make my first proper mod (based around 338BC just before the Battle of Chaeronea but I have had some difficulty in following some of the tutorials so far in relation to making new campaign maps. More of a visual learner myself and need it to be idiot proof clearly. So any advice or help would be very much appreciated.

Basically my vision was to have a campaign map similar to that of the Sons of Mars prologue from RTW but bigger exploring from Carthage in the West to either the Eastern boundary already set in place in RTW or a little further into Asia (as seen in RTW: Alexander). The main factions would be Macedon, Greek Cities, Roman Republic, Carthage, Persian Empire/Achaemenid Empire and then maybe some other factions including Sparta and maybe some rebel factions like the Samnites.
