I have seen posts that have said you can mod an existing game, and posts which have said you can't. Personally, I have not been able to successfully mod an existing game.
For example, seeing the suggestion of making Swordsman upgradable I promply edited my civ2mod.bic file to upgrade Swordsman to Musketman. In the editor I used File->Open and got the civ2mod.bic file. When I was done I saved.
In my existing game I still cannot upgrade Swordsman, but I can upgrade them in a new game.
That led me to believe that mods only affected new games, but someone just said that they've modified an existing game.
Am I doing something wrong, or what?
