I suggest you start here with getting the mod tools:

The simplest edits are just some changes to text files, then you need to "munge" or compile the changes to make a replacement side.lvl file for the faction you want to change.  The level of complexity rises a lot, to changing sound and music, unit skins, and gets as advanced as new models and animations.

The better you are with working on computers, the easier this will be.

Just ask if you need help or directed to a particular tutorial.

Note that most changes you make on your own computer will only work for you. For multiplayer servers, most changes must be done on the server.
