If any of these mods change the EDU, then you won't have shield-wall. BUT. If you only install the "main section" of my installer (the first checkbox), you can have any of these mods installed over my installer, and then you'll be able to play these mods with BI instead of vanilla RTW.

Ok, so IF, i install the mini mod EB/BI and then install the following mods
1-AI unit formation mini mod
2-city mod restriction mini mod
3-Spoilers of battle mini mod
4-forced diplomacy
5-Perm, Temp fixes

will it work? will i have all those mini mods, plus the EB/BI, with night battles/warcry, and the BI features?

if not, how do i put all these together?(considering those mine mods does not change the EDU i guess)

If you select ONLY THE FIRST CHECKBOX in my installer, you will be fine but you definitely won't get warcry/shieldwall/canswim or night battles. The other mods will run with BI just fine. You will also be able to run the uninstaller to go back to EB with regular RTW--while preserving the other mods you isntalled.

On the other hand, if you check all the boxes in my installer then install those mods, you will likely lose shieldwall, and night battles may not even work, and it's possible that lots of stuff will crash. Also the uninstaller for my mod will be hosed, so if you run it lots of weird things will happen.

As far as the permanent/optional fixes go, give me a few days to incorporate them into my installer.

The mods seem to be compatible with each other so that should not be the problem. However the Spoils of Victory micro-mod does use files (export_descr_character_traits.txt and EBBS.txt) that will be overwritten by the fixes.

To make it work I would recommend to do the steps as you have said, except for No.3.

Install Spoils of Victory as the last by copying manually relevant parts of the modded files to your fixed game files - see the bundled readme file for details on what my changes in those files are and where to find them.

Good luck!

Good news folks! I've been tweaking my installer for the past few days since I've released the version compatible with 1.1, and I'm very happy the results. It now groups the installer options in a tree so that you know which ones are required for what. It will also automatically detect the old installation and remove it for you in case you forget. But that's not all. Now the installer also includes:

Permanent Fixes and Optional fixes to EB 1.1
Optional removal of magic floating banners / selection triangles

I've also added more screenshots the end product at the download link for those skeptics out there.

And if you're too lazy to go back to the first page of the post, here's the download link again.

Playing KH my generals no longer have the ability to rally their troops since the shieldwall icon takes the place of it ... can this be changed so they can still rally their units!

Typically the rally symbol is only replaced if the general is a "helper general" as opposed to the main general of the army. Can you confirm this?
