For the record; No it's not, but you won't be able to play online if you use modified versions of them. You're able to edit weapons and all that. Just check out the Soldat folder for all the stuff you can mod, and a good read is the Soldat Wiki article on modding.

It's the title for your post count. The more posts you do the 'better' will it get. Not that that is a valid reason to spamming posts though.

Why hasn't anyone answered his first question?

No, you can't add or remove weapons. Although, if you're playing on your own with bots (or hosting your own server of the weapon mod), you can take out weapons and bonuses through the Options menu.

You can't edit the appearence of the game main menu's.. only edit the text.

There is a way (or used to be) of editting the songs in soldat (gore, necromancide etc..) I remember playing a mod once... I think it was a halo mod.. and it replaced one of the songs.. but I don't know how.
