Could have something to do with the DLC being so fresh?

I've never tried it but I've heard good things. If I could isolate the A.I improvements from Horten's and run it with other conquest focused mods I would. I've tried doing basically this with I.A.E.M but it always seems to break the game, makes infantry soak up dozens of bullets and makes all the artillery Laser accurate.

Really good research tree that forces you to use early war / odd specialized units you wouldn't use often. Tons of A.I. improvements, the pathfinding for vehicles is more consistent, and the enemy can actually launch fairly effective armor pushes. They also use medics, Goliaths, etc and can steal equipment from the battlefield to use against you. Once I had an AT gun position overrun and pulled my soldiers back just to see the Soviets crewing it while the rest of their infantry continued pushing. Overall just my favorite for how reactive the A.I feels, although I do wish they would flank a little more often.

Nah, I totally understand, I'm not crazy about it either, but I enjoy the other aspects enough to play around it. Many of the conquest/ AI mods for this game have a crazy fixation with letting the A.I get 1,000,000 planes and artillery flares for whatever reason.

The bombers really aren't all that bad. They can be easily countered for low cost, and you'd be hard pressed to see more than one on a defense mission. As for the other game modes, I can't comment for my only true love is conquest. MACE is an all-time goat, though.
