Full NgGH Magic Origins support
Open with Shift+E

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Massive time-saver for min-maxers—no more alt-tabbing to edit saves
  • Legends and Magic Origins support means it covers the big overhaul mods
  • JSON export/import is a godsend for sharing builds or backing up your roster

⚠️ Cons

  • Only 88 endorsements—small userbase, so community troubleshooting is limited
  • Last updated May 2026—check if it works with the latest Battle Brothers patch
🎯 Is This For You?
For Battle Brothers veterans who want to fine-tune their bros without restarting campaigns. Also for Legends players who want deep customization. Skip if you prefer vanilla challenge—this is a cheat tool, not a balance mod.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Make a backup of your save before editing—JSON export can be a lifesaver if you mess up
  • Test Shift+E in the main menu first to ensure the mod loads correctly
  • If you use Legends, install BBforge after Legends to avoid conflicts
