Hi there! I just recently installed the modification kit for XCOM 2, and I'm most certainly a beginner in modding. I wanted to, for my first mod create some new Icons for squads. I already have the images prepared, I just need a quick rundown on how to do it should anybody know.

Easy.. grab one of the Workshop Mods that already offer such additional SQI & inspect the actual modding principles involved.
Generally speaking, you'll need to create two specific assets and insert them into a default ModBuddy template;
1) Custom UPK Library file that would host your Icon files.
2) "XComLW_Content.INI" file that will list the " +SquadImagePaths= " instructions required to identify those Icons for the Engine.
