If i understand with this background script a british general unit with a general named Aneirin must appear at the beginning of the second game turn...OR NOT????IS THERE AN ERROR?????

please look at this:

one definite problem is where your line says
barb british general briton,

it should say
unit name of unit,


I'm not sure why you're having problem saving... that implies something more fundamental is wrong!

If you're having problems saving, it's probably because you're starting a new campaign without exiting all the way to the desktop. There is a bug in the engine (or maybe it just wasn't designed to be used the way we're using it?), where the background script does not auto-terminate when you exit back to the main menu. The only way I can think of to get around that (again, short of exiting all the way to the desktop) is to give the player a way to terminate it manually before exiting, i.e.:

;;; --- Forced shutdown ---
monitor_event ScrollAdviceRequested ScrollAdviceRequested end_game_scroll
    terminate_script
end_monitor
