This mod is just dumb fun and 1000% fucking badass especially when you want literally whole space marine chapters against hordes of everything coming at you. The AI is very aggressive as well, so it's pretty intense, even at early game.
The only downside is that flying units is limited and very buggy but that's something from the base game itself so you can't really blame the modders.
Once I battled against an Adepta Sororitas faction and late game they built 10 nuclear centers and launched them all simultaneously at me and I instantly got defeated :v:

For anyone curious 1.88.6 is available on Lord_Cylarn youtube channel, it introduces a few new things like Volkite and Gravitron weapons and stuff, but the audio mixing is terrible and a few icons are still missing so download and try it at your own discretion.
Does it still have terrible performance issues tho
Usually I get around <30 fps average [i]and thats with reduced pop caps[/i]

The mod adds LOADS of new effects and the models are better in quality. So it's as smooth as UA gets (by that I mean I was running at 8 FPS during big fights)
yeah the audio is so fucking poor. even on the standard voicelines from Dawn of War. its like a mess of noise.
i feel they should remove or massively nerf the super OP invulnerability buffs that i would argue are worse than the actual nuclear weapons, Exterminatus etc
the Eldar, for example, have the Avatar of Khaine that massively boots the durability of ALL their units as long as it lives, making everything virtually unkillable
i got charged by [I]twenty invincible Eldar Titans[/I] that made mockery of my own elite units, wiping the field with everything from superheavy tanks to Warlord class Titans, and each of the fuckers took concentrated fire from [U]two[/U] [I]Imperators[/I] to die, just because the damn Avatar was hanging back outside the range of my guns and nothing could pierce the sparkling space elf magic shields
UA is fun when it's not total bullshit

I gotta ask, is that when you play against the AI, or against other people? I've only played against AI, and so far, only during one match have I experienced them rolling out apocalypse-tier units.

That depends on the factions, I think. Like the Space Marines WILL roll out Warhounds and Reavers, but the Grey Knights would rarely do that and use the The Supreme Grand Master along with some Nuclear Centers and Penitent Engines instead. Orks would certainly use Squiggoths for the first few waves and then Stompas later on. Given enough time they will roll out the biggest guns they've got like Mega Gargants.
Last time I played I played against an Ork AI that just spammed grot cannons which deleted entire infantry squads with no effort and moved at the same speed as grots, had the toughness of a vehicle, and also infiltrating. UA is fun but the balance has always been their weakest point.

ever tried playing against AI Orks? they don't even need Apocalypse units, they'll just spam such hordes of bomb squigs that even your Titans will cry out in terror before being suddenly silenced
