Couple things in game though, fighting rebels around western Africa and Iberia all have the Carthage flag (banners) despite being spawned rebels and not Carthaginians turned rebels. And when fighting in central Iberia I couldn't help notice that the Stone Henge was there =P does Iberia and Britannia use the same maps or something?

And something unrelated to the mod, is there a safe way of switching from the game to the desktop/internet? I always use Alt-Tab but for Rome it can make it very hard to return to the game, like it refuses to load sometimes.

We need to have the units which has the carthaginian standard to fix it.

The Stonehenge in Iberia is normal. Because that is not a landmark, rather, it is the Celt's gathering. The northern Spain has great Celtic heritage, so it has been in the mod since the beginning.

Sorry, it was the Peasants, almost all rebel armies were made up of Mercenary [forgot name, scutari?] and 1 Peasant Unit as it's general, was weird

Great! I will pass the information onto Cel.

New Amazons Total War file with new interface is being uploaded right now.

The new UI completely discards the external utility in favor of internal campaign menu.

The upload has been completed.

The changes carries out my new User Interface concept, which is implemented by Celeste (Cel SB).

The ideas being to discard the external user interface entirely and use the internal campaign interface instead.
Now we have multiple choice of campaigns to choose from.

This is to implement Wheelie Paul's idea of allowing options for campaign.
Type 1 will destroy the Summoned Amazon faction, thus makes campaign easier.
Type 2 will leave the Summoned Amazon faction, and make the campaign more difficult.
At the same time, the completion of a Quest will still allow the player to recruit advanced tech units and collect prize as well.

This change will replace the auto-gen script for now.

finally I understand how to create the unitcards. I told Dragour I start with the Scythia/Seleucids and Gaul factions. I believe the barb_charriots need a make over so I will create also a new one for them. Sometimes I can't choose which pic so I will create 2 of them. I will post them when ready.
Here's the first Scythian unit.

It is very detailed yet with so few pixels!

Looks very good.

Just a quick FYI, in the actual unit card for recruiting and battle, the whole of the smaller tile needs to move over to the right by a few pixels.

Because the top left, and top right are reserved for unit status.
