Best Mods for Total War: Warhammer 3 That Change Gameplay

Introduction

Let’s dive into popular mods that modify the gameplay and find out what are the best mods for Total War: Warhammer 3. These mods can provide a different, often enhanced experience, and I’ll also share my thoughts on how fair or “cheater-like” they are, along with download links for your convenience.

1. Recruit Defeated Legendary Lords

Have you ever felt frustrated when legendary lords of your race disappear after their faction is defeated? This mod solves that issue, letting you recruit any legendary lord from a defeated faction. For instance, if the Empire loses Karl Franz, he won’t perish but can join your faction as a commander.

  • It doesn’t make the game significantly easier but creates chaos on the map. Legendary lords often end up scattered in random factions, filling the map by mid-game. It’s fun but chaotic.

2. Immortal Empires Expanded

Annoyed by empty spaces on the map where Nippon, Ind, or Khuresh should be? This mod fills those regions with cities and factions, making the game world feel complete.

  • This doesn’t feel like cheating; it simply adds depth and immersion. It’s hard to play without it once you try it.

3. MIXER – Mixu’s Unlocker

This mod is essential for running faction-specific mods and provides additional functionality. It doesn’t change gameplay directly but is required for other mods.

  • Just install it; you’ll almost certainly need it for other mods.

4. Caravans of the Old World

This mod introduces Cathay’s caravan mechanics to other Order factions, including humans and dwarfs. It’s lore-friendly and enjoyable but can break game balance by providing extra income and caravans for factions not originally designed to have them.

  • It’s fun but can disrupt the balance. Orks and other factions love ambushing caravans, which can quickly escalate into chaos.

5. Auto Resolve Quest Battles

Tired of fighting quest battles for purple gear? This mod allows auto-resolving those battles, saving time.

  • It’s more of a time-saver than a cheat, especially for repetitive quests.

6. Toggle Chaos Realms

This mod removes Chaos portals in the “Realm of Chaos” campaign, turning it into a sandbox experience.

  • While it’s a great option for players who dislike the Chaos Realm mechanics, it removes the campaign’s main narrative focus.

7. Easier Confederations & Vassals

Removes penalties for confederation and makes factions of your race more likely to join you with high relations.

  • This is outright cheating, making the game significantly easier for players.

8. Immortal Landmarks

Adds unique buildings with lore-based descriptions and bonuses to various provinces, enriching the game world.

  • This adds diversity without being unfair, as the AI benefits too. A great mod for immersion.

9. Ultra Aggressive & Smart AI

Enhances AI behavior, making them more aggressive and strategic. Chaos factions actively expand, and factions no longer leave cities undefended.

  • A must-have for those seeking a more challenging and engaging AI.

10. Climate Adaptation

Removes penalties for occupying regions with hostile climates after a certain number of turns.

  • This feels like cheating, as it eliminates a key challenge of managing diverse territories.

11. Warband Upgrade Ultimate

Allows upgrading units into elite troops without dismissing weaker units, saving time and effort.

  • Convenient early-game but doesn’t impact mid-to-late game balance significantly.

12. Unlock All Skills

Removes the level 50 cap, letting lords gain all available skills over time.

  • While it provides a sense of progression, it’s essentially cheating, as it removes the need for careful skill planning.

13. No More AI Attrition Immunity

Ensures that AI armies suffer attrition from corruption and terrain just like players.

  • Fair and immersive. It addresses one of the most annoying aspects of AI behavior.

Conclusion

Total War: Warhammer III is a fantastic game on its own, but mods bring unparalleled customization and replayability. Whether you’re looking for a more challenging AI, richer lore, or new mechanics, there’s a mod for everyone. Experiment with these mods to discover a fresh way to enjoy the game.
