This mod is a global overhaul that integrates and enhances content from over 50 different mods.
⚠️ Important: Do not use other mods that add units, change mechanics, or rebalance the game. This will cause conflicts and crashes. Disable all other gameplay-related mods for a stable experience.
⚠️ Stability Tip: If you experience a crash or unexpected error, try loading a save from 3–4 turns earlier. This helps the game engine recalculate AI logic correctly and avoid potential script conflicts.
This is my first mod — I’m new to modding and have never done it before. I’m doing my best to make it balanced, polished, and fun to play.
🔹 Land Mass: High.
🔹 Game Speed: 1.00x.
🔹 Advanced Settings: All Medium.
🔹 Maximum Technology Tier: 15.
Gladius Prime: Ultimate Overhaul is a non-commercial fan project created to deeply rebalance Warhammer 40,000: Gladius – Relics of War.
I started with a compilation of other authors’ mods, but struggled with imbalance and incompatibility. To fix this, I merged the best content from 50+ mods into a single overhaul: adapted assets, rewrote scripts from scratch, and fully rebalanced gameplay — all for a stable, challenging, and tactically rich experience.
