Basic questions about modding:
Hello. I am terrible with programming languages, but I can follow instructions well. I am interested in creating a few mods. Could someone tell me if my ideas are doable, and which ones are great ideas that a newbie would not be able to do without way too much time on their hands?

Mod ideas:
1. I'd like a mod to create an event where Godir in my pantheon occasionally send a hero/troops to attempt to accomplish an objective. (Attack a city, raze a tower, etc.)
2. I'd like to create some roleplaying based event screens, that depend on an AI player's personality. (Demonic Warlords might summon a demon, or start a cult...Artisan Lord might make a special magical item for one of their heroes.)
3. Create Tier 2, or 3 form based units.
4. Make disadvantages that give you back points for your forms.
5. Create a couple of Late game events, like AOW 3...Zombie invasion, "Aquatic" enemies rise up out of the ocean and attack.
6. The thing that I most want, chain events, larger quests where you must take out a specific lair, have a hero go to a specific place and interact with an event, send that hero to another Godir's area for advice...

If anyone could tell me which, if any, of these ideas are easiest to implement, or if I'm just doing the thing where my ambition is far greater than my (underwhelming) technological ability.
