Is there any way to edit the music?

Interesting question. I'll have to look into the program files and see what's there. I know with Battlefront/Normandy/Italy you can edit those files and there's a thread on the SSG site on how people did it, adding their own music. I think those files(not FoF because I haven't looked at them yet) are .OMG which all you need is a program to convert them to .OMG from .MPG or what ever they are.

One can replace the music files in the Music/ directory with other .wma files, just be sure to use the exact filename system that is used in that directory.  Adding music beyond the last filename (msc32.wma and hw17.wma) won't have any effect.  The 'msc' files are music that plays in the strategic part of the game; the 'hw' files play during detailed battle.

What kind of music do you want to add, the Gettysburg-soundtrack, Iced Earth with their "Gettysburg" songs?
