Guide: How to add Units to Civ4
Very useful tutorial. This is the first thing I learned to do to mod for civ4, and gets you familiar with Civ4's XML structure.

Thanks a lot!
I must admit that this looks a bit confusing to me so far, have to think of how to try it out without ruining any mods. Sane baqckup-files I guess

Custom assets.
Don't alter your core game files. Just copy any file you intend to mod into your custom assets folder, and modify the files in your custom assets. Custom assets are loaded on game start up automatically so your game will play with any changes you make there, but that way you still have the originals in the right place so you wol't permanently flub up your main civ4 files. And trust me, you'll mess something up while modding, it's inevitable.
