Hi parent_usmc!
The first place to stop by would probably be the Scenario Design FAQ, it contains pretty much everything to get started. I recommend playing through some of the higher rated works at the Blacksmith to get a feel of the scenario editor's possibilities. (Though most works there were made for the regular version, they should work fine with the HD edition) Finally, it might be a good idea to try to reverse-engineer some of the works at the Blacksmith. The Campaign Manager allows you to extract scenario files (.scn / .scx) from the campaign files (.cpn / .cpx).
