Thought I might have posted in the wrong section. Sorry about that.

Alpaca, I did read your tutorial. I'm a real, no fooling around, authentic newb, so many of the instructions went over my head-for example-I downloaded your mod folder creator and all the files (including those in the "Text" folder) are now in text. When I opened them, they seem to have nothing to do with the file I want to edit in the Data folder. They're mainly descriptions, etc.

Anyway, I just want to mod one (1) file in my Kingdoms British campaign (the export_description_units file) and have the changes show up in the game. I want to change the cost/turns to produce for catapults and artillery so the AI doesn't mass produce them. Is it necessary to go through all the steps in the turorial to do this??

Any help would be greatly appreciated. I really enjoy the game until the 1st AI catapult rush. Then it goes rapidly downhill.

Thanks
