- The Mod Broke Before the Guard Did! (honestly I tried to record a whole lot more of Ultimate Apocalypse but boy it loves to crash)
Hope you enjoyed some more RTS gameplay from me and the guys. Was a simple video I wanted to whip up of our matches the other night. Might get them in for some Company of Heroes 2 or Men of War soon.

>they can't kill the conscripts fast enough
I feel like that's just how the guard is supposed to work.
It is, the best description is: infantry is cannon fodder. Tanks are what you use to kill enemies. (Somewhat)
"Let's see them fight ALL of us!"
Glory for the first man to die!! George!!!
Isn't there a quote "We have more soldiers than they have bullets"?
"I have more bodies than you have bullets." -Quote from the Imperial Guard Infantry Doctrine
"livesey...GET THE CONSRIPTS READY"
-commisar rimmy upon spotting enemy minefield
Borgar Syrstad-Vindenes “Conscripts are ready sir. Awaiting your order.”
@@finaladvance5085 "you see that position?" Go forward until you eventually reach it"
"Sorry about this lads but we need the minefield clearing and all of our Penal Troopers died in the first assault so... (Cocks Bolt Pistol) ...hop to it For the Emperor."
I should subscribe. This guy plays my mod.
So you've subbed to Mandalore and Rimmy so far
@@acewolfgang276 I mean both do make good content and the mod is quite something.
you sir and everyone who has worked with you are legends im still playing your mod to this day
You and your team sir need a freaking medal!! U guys are legends....awesome mod just freaking crazy....and thankyou so much for making this mod!
Lord Cylarne, supreme adept!
The gentlemen of the Cadian 105th, the Harvest Reclaimers, wish to extend their congratulations on a job well done and are looking forward to the 1.9
Keep up the good work! Emperor Protects.
“They can’t kill the conscripts fast enough”
A TRUE IMPERIAL VICTORY PRAISE THE EMPRAH
"I mean look at this, this guy's got like no face"
*Squad instantly loses morale*
LMAO
Imperial Guard in Lore:
*WHERE'S OUR FIRE SUPPORT
Imperial Guard in tabletop:
"WE ARE THE FIRE SUPPORT!!" >:-)
Imperial Guard in the lore is hilariously OP unless it's space Marine or xenos lore (except Orks)
But when the titans start playing ooh boy does it get good
1. ALL OF THE ARTILLERY
2. Conscripts EVERYWHERE!
3. BANEBLADES
4. oh and the Basilisk Magnus... it is the best artillery gun
5. Commissar
legio titanica mod also gives the guard the *fucking imperator titan*
7:46 now THIS is how you're supposed to use conscripts in 40k
Well no, the imperial guard has penal legions for it
actually penal legion don’t have rules in 40k anymore
What war crimes?
@@OrificeHorus War Crimes? Is that another term for a perfectly legitimate and morally acceptable battle tactic?
DO YOU HEAR THE BEEPING TOO?
Sanity.... Is for the WEAK!
@A Happy Lictor IT IS A GOOD NOISE
Can you hear their call~?
Wait...
IT IS A GOOD PAIN!!!
It is as though a thousand mouths cry out in pain!
7:45 Chenkov was a vallhallan commander in 40k fluff known for just spamming conscripts.
ikr
He was just stalin but grimdark
5th Edition Codex was the best. My favourite was Kamir, the Rough Rider commander that had a mechanical horse. The only complaint I had was that even if you used him you couldn't field Rough Riders as Troops (for example if you had a SM Captain on a bike you could get bikers as Troops, which really was just a work around to allow you to field White Scars properly)...
Fuck that guy.
@@y1751 as opposed to real life Stalin, who was such a great guy :P/s
Zhukov really did do that in the race to Berlin. I think they used penal troops.
Why is the Imperial Guard the best faction?
ONE GOOD REASON!
90% Casualty Rate=Victory.
101% casualty rate = winning*
Their sacrifices shall be worthwhile.
Sovet commanders
My true successor
Loses are acceptable. Failure is not.
Darek Baird God, that literally almost killed me, thank god I wasn't eating at that very moment!
*Casualty rate 99.99%*
Imperium: I see this as an absolute win
as long as they actually won
The tau do have walls in the tabletop.
The guard towers on it are rail guns, there are hangers of drones, and the whole wall can move.
Be happy with what you have.
Not when they were first introduced, they were maneuver shooters. They also kept their mechs reasonable sized and used really big hovercraft as their titan killers/general super weapons.
Their "titan-killers", the Manta Missile Destroyer, was a fully space-capable flight craft, to be exact. As well as having transport capacity for something like a half-dozen Hammerhead/Devilfish, multiple Crisis Battlesuits, and ~40 Shas'la.
That sounds poisonous...and cool.
@@00yiggdrasill00 and the largest and most expensive model in all of warhammer
Tabletop, yes
Rimmy: THEY'VE ADDED HORSES!
me: *happy gas mask noises*
Pyro? Is that you?
So they DO make space marines out of Korps men! I bloody knew it!!
@@solillman2350 kreigsmen also I'm pretty sure pyro would fit in with the kriegs men
Ultimate Apocalypse?
*DONT MIND IF I DO*
I think dark crusade is the best one by far because of its campaign. When you attack a faction home province, after the cut scene your faction commander and theirs talk to each other, with the dialog changing depending on what race you were and they were. It was awesome.
Sadly soulstorm didn't do that...
Also,
"Orks, Orks, Orks, Orks, Orks, Orks, Orks, Orks, Orks"
-Ork boyz when you click on them
Soulstorm could have been great. But so could DoW3. Eh oh
I'm the kind of cancer player that likes to turtle in RTS, and slowly advance on the enemy with whatever long range artillery I can get.
Casually walking to victory atop the craters and corpses.
Only bad RTS games don't allow that as a valid tactic.
I'm sorry, but I just heard you read a page from the Death Korps Tactical book.
@@mr.hungryloser I know not of these "Death Korps," but I believe I should familiarize myself with them.
@@idiom2805 sorry for being late, Warp-travel's a bitch. The Death Korps of Krieg are a subset in the Imperial Guard known for being trench warfare and siege specialists. There's a rather popular story about how a company of Kriegsmen were sent to force a Hive City to pay its tithes, so in Krieg fashion they shelled the city with artillery for five years, heard everyone was dead, then proceeded to shell the city for another three years, reducing a Hive City the size of Mt. Everest to naught but rubble.
Their homeworld, Krieg, is a death world trapped in nuclear winter after the last city of loyalists literally nuked the whole rest of the planet, was found by the Administratum and told to create one regiment as a way of testing if this world with no readily available resources could be of use. When the Administratum came to collect, they were met with twenty fully trained regiments, another fifteen in training, and a request to send them to the worst battlefields possible.
@@MidoriOfTheShuinsen
The Death Korps are now the single most feared opponent the imperium can roll out that isn't space marines, and are arguably scarier then some chapters of astartes.
Hey rimmy, there is also a setting in the game options for auto replenishment. No need to even replenish the constrip waves.
Also a campaign mini mod if you want to relive that.
I feel like that would drain your resources fairly quickly as even though they are free to produce they still cost some to reinforce
Only problem with the auto-replenish is that it doesn't work when the unit's in combat. You have to replenish the squad yourself if they're in combat.
How to play the Imperial Guard.
>1~2 Cav for early strategic point grab
>Spam Conscripts
>Spam Guardsmen (and entrench them) to hold defense for worst case scenario
>Spam Basilisks
>Buy Valkyrie to spam Conscripts behind the enemy
>Build Baneblade
>Build nuke
>Proceed to wonder why you still haven't won
>Leave game
>Start next game as Space Marines
>Lose that game
>Uninstall Soulstorm
>Install Winter Assault
>Play campaign
>Switches to Eldar
>Uninstall Winter Assault
All in a days work.
Those arent any normal horses rimmy
THOSE ARE THE DEATH KORPS OF KRIEG HORSES
I'm actually pretty sure those riders are from Armageddon not Krieg.
517342 SILENCE CASUAL!
Yeah those are Steel Legion Bois. Helmet is different.
"you couldn't even play defensive tau"
well, then it's more accurate to the tabletop game now, frigging Gunlines that never leave deployment zones...
Rimmy + UA = Space Soviets
5075 i whas waiting for this comment
"THEY CANNOT KILL THE CONSCRIPTS FAST ENOUGH!"-Quite possibly the most Imperial Guard thing that has ever been, and ever will be uttered.
You think infinite free conscripts is bs? Necrons get infinite free necron warriors and towers that res everything that died on the map! This allows them to MASSIVELY exceed unit cap. Begin the slow march of doom and Gauss cannons!
too bad, they march so slow that imperial guard will snipe your base, and you want to defend it? so bad your army need to cut through all those conscripts first
@@arekkrol9758 Well, if your Monolith moves...
@@arekkrol9758 destroyer spam. It's hard to stop once it starts.
@@arekkrol9758 they're gonna be counter-sniped by Pylons. Also Monoliths.
@@alize1106 Don't forget the pylons and their global firing range
Big guns ready to fire! Nothing better than a field full of xenos and a fully loaded heavy bolter singing the emperors praise
I would love to have more Ultimate Apocalypse videos, even unedited, full games would satisfy me.
This pleases us.
0:00
This must be the work of a tactical geni- CREEEEEEEEED!
Rimmy: *insults guardsmen's face*
Guardsmen squad: *morale broken*
"i mean look,he's got no face!"
-squad morale broken-
made me laugh sooo much more then it should have!
Why Kasrkins makes bad Bus drivers?
*They Stop For No One!*
Doors that way.
I'm sorry, is there anyone who *doesn't* think that the Imperial Guard is the best faction in UA?
yes,because the tyranids can nom anyone and everything.
Tyranids and Orks are pretty OP, as well. Kind of like in 8th Edition tabletop, the horde armies are the best.
@@johnfrederick9833 nah mate just play Chaos and build only hero's as khorne, and start summoning chaos shrines in the enemy base and using it to project build aura to spam more chaos shrines
Daemonhunters are the OP race in my opinion. Despite the fact you can tower rush them and win in 32 seconds.
I will also state that Tyranids and Necrons are stronger than Imperial Guard.
Eldar and Orks are about the same strength, and HOLY SHIT Dark Eldar bases are invisible max range nukes.
Have they buffed them since 1.88.5? Because, as I remember, they'd always get their shit kicked in by Tyranids and Necrons
Gods I get the shivers whenever I think of the Chaos Demons faction from that game. Mainly because I got bomb rushed the shit out of my enemies at the start of every game.
Also that "BattleFleet Gothic" ending for the Space Marines really is endgame.
It always interested me how, despite Dawn of War 1 and 2 being completely different, fans of both games tend to get along. Argument over which game is best doesn’t really happen. They both just tend to acknowledge that the other game is good, but they disagree
Then DoW3....
Jake Pope Well yeah, but then both Fans bond even more by agreeing that DoW 3 Sucks ass
I still hope for adeptus mechanicus faction mod for dawn of war
Dr pretzel latest version of Titanium Wars for soul storm has them. Also sweet looking models for the battle sisters.
The biggest thing I love about this mod is how it adds the Tyranids. I was kinda mad when I heard that soulstorm was adding the Sisters of Battle and the Dark Elder but not the Tyranids. I really need to play this mod sometime.
dow 1? oh my
dow 1 with rimmy? oh myyyyy
dow 1 ULTIMATE APOCALYPSE whit rimmy? OH BY THE DARK GODS YASSSS
Nothing like going to Macragge with the Cadians and showing the Blueberries how it's done.
"Get the conscripts ready, we can clean this minefield"
Now that's how the guard uses their men, very realistic
Rimmy and Ultimate Apocalypse? Give that man some holy oil and purity seal
Brings back a lot of good memories, one of my personal favorite RTS's, keep it up Rimmy!
FOR THE IMPERIUM OF MAAAAAAANNN (if given enough time, i can build an artillery fortress of terror.
watching this while it's installing onto my !! LEGALLY ACQUIRED !! copy of soulstorm.
*smiles in gas mask*
Seeing you gush about a game you genuinely love and adore is the sweetest fucking thing
This was awesome Rimmy I really hope you do more love your content.
Minefield: SEND THE CONSCRIPTS TO CLEAR THEM OUT!!
Tank: SEND THE CONSCRIPTS TO SLOW THEM DOWN!!
Bunker: SEND THE CONSCRIPTS TO DISTRACT THEM!!
Coffee: SEND THE CONSCRIPTS TO THE LOCAL BAZAAR!!
"You have achieved a Take And Hold victory"
*T-poses imperially*
We need more rimmy playing this mod he shows off more of the mod than other youtubers do
Sir, there is a wave of orks coming from the le-
SEND IN THE CONSCRIPTS!!!
But, sir-
I SAID DO IT
Rimmy in a nutshell
I loved this game and mod, pls play more if you and your mates enjoyed it. I'd love to watch more of it.
Yes the earlry 2000 is the golden age of rts we got game like red alert 2 and general
One flashlight is diddly, but a million flashlights is a whole lotta diddly.
Anything: *[happens]*
Rimmy: *[HYSTERICAL LAUGHTER]*
I take ultimate apocalypse videos like a conscript takes a bolt pistol round, my moral is restored.
I was feeling depressed so I watched you and became instantly happy so now I know the source of endless happyness
Still playing this masterpiece up until now......and it's always awesome
More of this please. Very good.
I hope he makes one of these for every one of the factions.

"Why do the Tau have walls?"
A better question is... why don't they?
*Slowly slides over the Tidewall Shieldline.*
"You couldn't play defensive TAU"
*Fire warriors holding position along with battlesuits in the distance*
YOU NEED TO DO MORE OF THIS NOW
Reads title
Me: ah, I see you are a man of culture as well
I would love waaaaayyyy more of this content please I love this mod!!!
Yeeees i was waiting so long for it
Good to see this game get some love.
Let's hopefully see much more of this!
god i love your warhammer vids so much
Im so glad theres people who still play this.
Can't wait for more, and I have a feeling maybe you should do your own DOW machinema?
This is sick, make more, peanut.
I now need to see Rimmy play Company of Heroes 1 and 2, along with the expansions
-"Get the conscripts we can clear this mine field"
Thats some IG general thinking right there
I played these games during my childhood yet they were all like 10 years old and I loved them
Because it's the most underestimated one? Everyone expects a flood of scared conscripts with cardboard armor and laser pointers, but no one is told that those guys would be so hard behind the lines of trenches, bunkers and heavy tanks filled with much more elite, experienced and better equipped that they won't even know about your existence when the Basilisk shell falls on your head after making all the way from them to you.
Oh man 'RTS's were my childhood' is a statement that resonates with my soul. I might not even be that *good* at RTS's, but by god do I love them
I absolutely love the Ultimate Apocalypse mod. I am happy with the recent updates and i am excited for the Gold Edition that they plan on releasing in the future. Lord Cylarne says it will have more content than the Hunt Begins update. Imperial Guard are also one of my favorite factions in the mod. I love creating tons of artillery to just shell the enemy with. I definitely would like to see more videos of this.
4:24 Rimmy's contagious laugh that you simply can't unhear
I just found this, and all I know is that I need more of it.
I NEED more of this
Imperial Guard Conscripts are OP as being meat shield.
No joke, make 2-3 and set to auto reinforcement and I just realize that, this is a new update... YES!
I would love to play this with people again. I hope more attention to this mod brings out more multiplayer games
Nice video!
I came back to rewatch all of these DoW 1 vids and it’s making me wonder if Rimmy’s seen and or played the Unification mod yet (probably has but still a curiosity)
A video I can get behind!
Rimmy, you ever going to try making a video on Empire at War?
"Get the conscripts together, we can clear this minefield" one of the most 40k things I've ever heard
The UA mod is amazing. I'm so happy they finally put out the 1.88.71 update and mini patch to stop the beeping. I'd love to play a game with you guys
I’ve never heard a more Imperial guard statement than “They can’t kill the conscripts fast enough”
This makes so much more sense when 1, you understand more of the lore, and 2, you have actually played as the imperial guard in dawn of war.
How to play guardsmen
Step 1. Get better computer
Step 2. Get send in the next wave
Step 3. Crash your friends computer
More Ultimate Apocalypse content please god
I love this game to bits! It's easily among my favorite games of all time! I'm not GOOD at it, but I still love it!
What I do find a little confusing about this mod is why they took the Rough Riders from the Steel Legion mod to the normal Guard.
You almost had me with that DoW3 gag. Almost.
I would request more of this, about 100 episodes, give or take a few thousands.
Ahhh age of empires was my childhood. There was also Crisis on my dads computer, and somehow it ran it quite well.
Those aliens scared me.
I loved this video you should make more
You sir have got yourself a new subscriber :)
I'm not even kidding, the main reason I love the IG is because of their airgame.
They have awesome gunships, the best aircraft, and the awesome level of dropships.
The only faction that comes close ish to their shenanigans is the Daemonhunters who have buttloads of drop capability.
"You couldn't even play defensive Tau!"
Me: Hold my bear.
I have to admit that I liked DoW III, but yeah it's nowhere near as good as DoW I. Though I'll never forgive Dark Crusade for limiting the number of bloody Leman Russes I could deploy.
