MA Ulm and other human nations is good practice for the very reason you mention, that it forces you to learn scripting. More challenge = better practice.

I feel like i'm talking past you.

Its your first game. You don't know *how* to script. Not how to script well, how to script at all. The mechanics, not the nuances.

Yes, later experimenting with different races is great. But for your very first game? The complication of subtly different infantry does not needed to be added on top of learning the game UI.
