I've finished the first version of the INC file for my new scenario. I'm trying to start it up to see how well it works, but during the 'Reading Scenario' the program crashes on a bug saying that there's an invalid 'fortress' entry at line 3139.

Using my handy text editor (Winword *grumblegrumble*), I've gone to line 3139 from the top and found myself in the Hanseatic Navy. Line 3139 from after the global data happens to be Croatia. I've rewritten Croatia a couple times, even copying over entries from the original 1492.inc but the program still says there's an invalid entry.

Am I looking at the right line 3139 and if so, what am I missing?
 
I looked over your file and found two problems with it. First problem is that you have a lot of repeating IDs, they should not repeat or the game crashes.

The second problem at the line 3139 is that you have the capital of Teutonic Order listed after two of their provinces, that's a mistake, since you have to put the capital province above all. Make the according corrections to your file and try to load it again.

I do know that IDs conflict, especially if you have three alliances with ID = 10.

Yes, one must always remember that ID's must be UNIQUE !! (that's why they are called ID's ... ,)).

I would say IDs together with wrongly paired paranthesises are the 2 main contestants the #1 reason for crashes in edited games.
