Can this northernmost city on the map be taken? It seems surrounded by forests...and the senate just issued a mission for me to take it. It's the last city still up of grabs (I'm really milking my first game I know)....so I'm thinking it's just their way to start a civil war....

Argh that place is hard to get to, you can't build roads or anything, I believe it takes like half a dozen turns to even get there.

You have to take the Western route, along one of the big rivers, and change sides several times. Take either a diplomat and a heap of cash or an able army with you.
From Campus Sarmatae, expect a ~8-12 turn journey, it really takes a while to get there. The amazons' chariots are really nasty and apart from their army the region has not much to offer, so I would well consider whether it's worth the effort... just start the civil war and leave these amazons alone.
