A few modder related questions. ;)

Hello im just curious as to how moddable Civ 5 is, as they say its the most moddable and this will be great since i've never played CIv 4 and am really getting into Civ 5 plus the new patch seems to fix a lot of the major issues people had.

Eitherway im curious as to exactly what can be modded, can the following be made new?

*Terrain types (tarmac or long grass for example)
*New resources and terrains
*New vehicles (like tractors, or the like for farming etc)
*Completely new gameplay including the above, like a new button or option etc with its own GUI?
*Finally any new buildings, like farms etc

Thanks.

It's worth noting that new terrain types, features, etc, and resources, can be created, but you have to then mod the map generation system in order to get them in the generated map.

It's also worth noting that you should read some threads and search before posting questions that are on the same level as:

"What color is the sky?"
"What is the book on the table before me?"

Check out the Creation&Customization sub forum that has tutorials and references:
Or any of the sticky threads anywhere,

That's my gruff response. If you ask other questions after researching the question yourself, I will be much nicer and politer.

But yes, you can do just about anything with Civ V... depending on your ability to code or type or read a manual that others have put together.
