Simply the best and truly a "must-have" missionpack for MoW:AS.

Simply the best mod for DoW2. Many new units, big epic battles and it pretty balanced IMO.

An absolute legend - and now I know why. Simply the best weapon modification for any shooter out there. Very smooth, balanced and fun gameplay - great and original guns, which are amazing to play with. Great new options (ironsights, sprint, etc), effects (shotgun, flamethrower, plasma rifle) and animations (knife! katana <3). When it comes to FUN and quantity that doesn't come at the price of quality, it easily kills off any other UT2k4 mod (maybe except the ones which went commercial, like KF and RO).

It's great. A must-have for any UT2k4 fan.

Pretty solid modification, good support over years, it's just that I think the gameplay and customisation might be better - especially damage balance.

But apart from this, which is my own point of view, the mod is very good.

Bunch of cool new stuff (character models, new guns, new skins), some wicked maps like ToonRun or Africa (not enough diversity in the maps apart from those two series) and finally, good support and built-in custom MP3 player.

What's not to like?

(damage balance can be adjusted by editing the skills file, so it's all good)

Even though the laggy trailer and non-amusing trailers didn't build much optimism, I stayed positive about what the mod will offer - and you guys didn't dissappoint. It's one of the best mods to ArmA I've ever played.

Most of the weapons look great (Lee Enfield and Sten look like took straight from the amazing Forgotten Hope 2) and handle like a dream (unlike I44 guns), shooting them is pure joy, especially the sounds are very good. Infantry and vehicle models also look great (except the unfinished ones, ships and planes only, if I'm not mistaken) and help the atmosphere and climate - which is well built by the amazing islands with one of the best trench and bunker models around. The manual is helpful, the editor supply (like classlists, modules, etc) is also good, which isn't that common around the mods.

After I saw the content, the only thing I was really concerned about was the gameplay, missions and how big the FPS will be. And I have to say it's the biggest "good dissapppointment" I ever had - FPS is really good and the missions provide some of the greatest gameplay in the series. The server I set up to test the mod right after I downloaded it quickly became crowded with many people also satisfied with the mod. To quote one of them, who "you were right, gameplay is really smooth". And indeed - IT IS. It feels very natural, fluid and is very satisfying and what would you want more from the mod?

Terrains - 9/10
Atmosphere - 10/10
Gameplay - 10/10

Why not full 10/10 then? Well I miss the ACE\I44-like interaction menu (apart from the hotkeys), and few things are yet to be completed (like PIAT textures or plane cockpits). Though, as most of my ACPL collegues agree, the biggest "Con" of this mod is the small amount of released missions. It's simply great, WE WANT MOAR!

v1.5, newest release up to date: 3/10. Only because the infantry models are pretty good and original. Rest is the same old stuff (some borrowed, even from OFP), just broken even more than year before...

You let me down once again, Snake Man.

We just couldn't stand MoWAS in the way it was normally, after we played for few months with your mod (which sadly stopped working after few patches). We were so dissappointed and we waited... and we waited...

And BAM! Here it is!

It's great to see this back, man :) Best mod for the game. Thanks!

Very good and fun WH40K mod (there's still not enough WH40K games). Artwork is good, gameplay is pretty solid and there's only few things that bother me:
- no way to refill ammo (you need to die to get new ammo)
- no bots (tho I know they wanted to include them)
- lack of orcs to slay :P (design decision, but I hope, someday...)
- rare CTD's (mapchanges only, afair)

with that things corrected I'd give strong 10/10.

Also, you get to play with the crew of the mod and they are good guys.

I had a lot of fun playing Exterminatus. I recommend it to every WH40K fan.
