Need help with modding

Hello,

I currently have some ideas on slightly modding RUS. Yet I have run into problems which I cannot solve:

1. How could I make armored trains possible to be incorporated in divisions?
2. Situation: I wish to attach a 76mm artillery battery to an armored train. I intend to imitate artillery being mounted on railroad platforms, thus I intend to have the movement type of the unit combined from the armored train and the artillery as "railroad restricted". Can this be done by making the coefficient of the armored train speed change from 100 to 99 or the artillery from 100 to 101?

If you create a new unit, any element in it with $RailBound will resrtict the entire unit to same.

What about incorporating armored trains in divisions? How could I make that possible? What determines whether a unit can become part of a division or nor?

2. So if I attach a 76mm battery(movement type: "heavy cavalry") to an armored train unit, this will mean that the movement type of the unit will be the same as of an armored train, not just railroad restricted but also making the effect or rainy weather on movement the same as the effect of rainy weather on the armored train alone?
