Q: Is there only split screen play/Is there online play?
A: Yes, though there is a mod which allows you to play online, however buggy.

Q: What are Activities?
A: It's a file used to define what ai spawns as their attacking force in skirmish scenario, many mods come with an activity file for their faction allowing you to fight against them in skirmish.
To use an activities file go into Base.rte and go down the PresetName = Skirmish Defence and under ScriptFile = Base.rte/Scenes/Scripts/SkirmishDefense.lua, change it to your mod's activity file.
This is of B24 where Lua is used for activities instead of the traditional ini.
