I have two weird problems with a scenario I'm working on. Firstly whenever I load the mod this shows up in the logs:

Code: 
Database::XMLSerializer (Scenario/Load Screen/MaccabeeScenarioLoadScreen.xml): 'Row' or 'Delete' expected, got 'Box'.
Here's the file its complaining about, I can't make heads or tails out of it (it's copied exactly from the Rise of the Mongols scenario):

Also, in adddition to all the normal handicaps, there's another handicap showing up on
my list that says TXT_KEY_AI_HANDICAP_DEFAULT. I have no clue how it got there. Any ideas? Image posted below.

1. It seems you have added that file to OnModActivated->UpdateDatabase. This shouldn't be done, as it's an UI XML file, not a file that updates the database. See here for more details on this subject.

2. This handicap was added in BNW, as the level on which the AI plays. The Mongol scenario was made earlier, so the code used for it doesn't hide this handicap. So it's better to use the code from BNW scenarios.

I'm using the Mongol code bec. its the only one where you can only play as one civilization, and my scenario is the same. Would you know where I can find (and then delete) the code to add that handicap?

You shouldn't delete that handicap, as it's used in BNW for the AI players (and I assume your scenario is meant to be played with BNW). You should hide it in the scenario screen instead. I checked the code of the Mongol scenario and Scramble for Africa scenario, and I think you should replace this line:
Code: 
	for info in GameInfo.HandicapInfos() do

With the following:
Code: 
	for info in GameInfo.HandicapInfos("Type <> 'HANDICAP_AI_DEFAULT'") do

Hope this helps :)
