This mod aims to...well it doesn't have an aim. Apart from causing pain and suffering - I mean fun to the end user. It just makes the game more fun to me, and hopefully to you as well with any luck. It started off as a minor change mod that slowly evolved into this monstrosity (I mean that in a good way) as a result of me going completely bonkers, with a few little helpful suggestions from the people with the suggestions.
Main
Tau/Ork/IG
Chaos
Imperial Guard
Eldar and Sisters of Battle
Anyway a lot of things have been changed, swapped or otherwise bastardised in a fashion that may or may not be balanced but that is not my primary concern. Also included is the Dawn of Skirmish AI mod version something or other. Thanks to them and such.
Most of the fixes in the Nobrainer Bugs list are included this mod, as well as most, if not all, of the fixes from the Bugfix mod by Maktaka. Thanks go to him for compiling the big list of things to fix and for providing the Bugfix mod.
Some thanks go to Argonaut for his Survival mod which I spent many hours playing and Fuggles for his random win conditions mod and for his Unofficial mod of the aforementioned Survival mod.
Big thanks to Kekoulis for spending so much time doing model requests and fixing issues including, but not limited to, the Imperial Guard Baneblade with weapon upgrades, Leman Russ with Inferno Cannon and Volkite, Eldar Firestorm and Warp Hunter, Shadow Spectres, Fire Prism, Chaos Dreadnought with left arm weapon upgrades and wargear, Chaos Predator with Bile Spewer, Sonic Blaster, Blast Master Plasma Cannon and Volkite upgrades, Ork 'Ard Shoota Boys, 'Ard Stomboys and 'Ard Tankbustas, Sisters of Battle Zephyrim, Seraphim with Inferno Pistols, Power Sword and Volkite Serpenta upgrades, Hospitaller model, improved models for Sisters of Battle, Chaos, Dark Eldar and Space Marines, Tau Breachers, Pathfinders with Ion Cannon upgrade, XV-95 Ghostkeel, XV-104 Riptide, XV-107 R'varna and XV-109 Y'vahra.
Also honourable mentions go to Zany Reaper for allowing me to use a lot of his units from his TTRU mod, such as the Tau Mines, Broadsides and Drones, Necron Destroyer and Heavy Destroyer with resurrection animations, DE Reaver with Blaster upgrade and Talos with jump animation. the Firestorm over Kronus (or soon to be Kaurava) mod for generously allowing modders with no talent for modelling to use their models and stuff, Gerberman for a lot of FX and stuff, Catwell for the GUO and KoS models and Gr0rc for his OE work on them and to the DoWXP mod team for some bits and pieces.

Also, Sister of Battles unit Novatiate? I think it's called, they have bugged combat audio, it's all beeps.
You know I might have a bad install or something. Ever since you changed your mod setup to have a separate install file from the main archive download there's been weird things happening lol.
When playing an 8 player game, you versus 7 AIs of all different factions, for some weird reason any faction that is in the second player slot their AI does not work. I had Fog turned off so I could see all 7 AI enemies. The AI in player slot 2 did not build anything. I think it's a memory issue.
God dammit, these issues didn't exist for this mod 2 years ago. So much cool stuff has been added that poor old engine for Dawn of War simply can't handle it. The mod works but only for smaller games. Massive epic 8 player games with hard AI and graphics turned all the way up are not working properly.
Playing as the Tau Causes AI opponents in skirmish to stay at their base and just do nothing they don’t build or produce units they just sit there it effects all AI opponents while playing as the Tau the mod runs fine while playing as any other race I love this mod but a fix would be great in the next patch The previous version didn’t have this problem
You gotta learn to use punctuation marks.
Hello, thanks for making all these mods.
I heard that this mod has an infantry squad auto-reinforcement feature, which makes it easier to keep a lot of infantry squads automatically reinforced forever.
Could this feature please be made available as a separate mod?
Right click on the reinforcement icon. Should work in any mod, and regular game too.
I'm getting a LOT of high-pitched beeps when SOB are in a game. Not sure if that's the mod or on my end; if the former, are there any plans to fix?
That aside, awesome mod, both in terms of gameplay and presentation. I can't believe I didn't get into this one sooner :D
I have the same beeping problem with Sisters of Battle. I think it's a mod issue. Question: have you played any 8 player games yet? And if you have, do all the AI players function? Cause I've been having a weird problem where on 8 player games, the second player slot's AI does not work, it doesn't build anything. The scripts aren't activating.
I haven't tried 8 player games, but I've found that CSM AI consistently fails to function in newer versions of the mod. I haven't tried Tau AI (which I've seen mentioned elsewhere), so I can't comment on that.
I've found that reverting to version 2.0.9 fixes the AI along with the SOB beeps (though I still do get some beeps elsewhere), so maybe try that?
I've seen the chaos AI work in smaller games. I tried a 1v1 with Chaos as the enemy and he worked, started building his base instantly. OK so you're saying I should downgrade? Delete corncob mod and install previous version?
Also, you gotta try an 8 player FFA game, they are EPIC!
Yeah, expect I'll indeed try a few :D
And yeah, that's what I suggest: delete your current corncobmod installation and try version 2.0.9 instead.
