Version 2. I've reworked a few things, particularly compression, low mids, and bass/kick frequencies, also pulled out lower frequencies of effects, looked at automated levels, tried to get a sense of choruses being a bit more 'noticeable' shall we say. This time I tried to steer right away from master bus processing, or any attempt at mastering it myself 
I think a lot of that compression issue was probably still trying to get my head around the UA Shadow Hills mastering compressor, but I did adjust individual track compression as well.
Have I gone too far with some things? (eg too thin now?) Every now and then I'm wondering if the snare is a little dry/unsupported/sticking out a bit. And I still have a bit to learn about how exactly to place kick & bass in relation to each other. I wouldn't say this is a finished product, but I want to move on!! Thanks for the previous comments, always appreciate other people's perspectives & wise advise
