📋 About This Mod

or Total War: Warhammer III


📋 DESCRIPTION

WARBRAIN is an intelligent campaign automation mod for Total War: Warhammer III.

Instead of a simple "build everything" script, WARBRAIN features an Adaptive Brain — a dynamic priority system that analyzes your empire's economic state every turn and decides what to build, where, and in what order.

Think of it as hiring the best advisor in the Old World. One who never sleeps, never makes mistakes, and always knows what your empire needs next.
