Since I am no specialist I do not know for certain, if 'options bi' is required for schiltrom etc to work. Reading through many threads seemed to reveal, that the 'options +...' only activates the night battle tick box and nothing else (which seems to be more compatible with the RomeTW_ALX.exe [my installation instructions are partly derived from the instructions for ALX, most go back to a very old thread for EB 0.xx]). So I would guess that 'options bi' should be required for schiltrom to work.
Take care. Using 'options bi' (by removing the leading ';' from the line in desc_strat.txt) will not by itself allow schiltrom , swimming etc. For that you would have to heavily edit the export_desc_unit (EDU) file. Additionally you would have to copy over the BI UI files for the battleicons.
I have found one strange thing. I have been playing Sauromatae recently. Even when my general has 4 'natural' command stars, which should enable him to fight a night battle, the tick box is greyed out (he is shown as an 8 star general on that page). I also never got the 'Night Fighter' trait for a general, which is due to never being attacked at night and never having a general with the inborn ability 'Night Fighter'. All new generals came without it.
With Epirus and Arche Seleukeia night battles are no problems. Currently I have no clue as to why Sauromatae do not get to fight at night.
Has anyone else also problems for some factions ?
