Themes are for the ORIGINAL GAME.

We need MOD TOOLS.

Why is modding a theme not modding? Their point is that it might be simpler to implement changing themes than changing the nations from scratch thus improving the chances of it being implemented, and since the themes can come with a whole set of troops as similar or dissimlar from the original nation as you want, this would let you change every aspect of a nation but its name and the flag on the map or the overviews. Thus if you could edit themes you could make an Ermor that could recruit orcs, snaga uruk-hai or whetever you want, you just would be stuck with the name Ermor and the skull flag.
