Initially, this mod was made by Hambango[forums.totalwar.com]. I uploaded it here with his permission to publish and maintain it.
Paperpancake has redesigned and expanded the mod.
One of the highest rated mods for Total War: Warhammer returns! With this mod you can assign one or more units to the AI to control. For example, you can assign your cavalry to the AI and watch them cycle charge the enemy again and again, while you command your infantry lines.
How it works
Just select the units you want to be controlled by the AI and hit Shift + F9 at the same time. This triggers a pop-up window showing the advisor. Now the AI controls the units you chose. Their cards are flashing, so you can always tell that they are under the AI. The key bindings are as follows:
– Shift+F10 will enable the AI for all unselected units
Advanced Controls
Useful when your units get stuck in an audio loop. To use this function hit Shift + F11. Default is ON.
If you want to assign all newly summoned units to the AI, enable this function by hitting Shift + F12 (before you cast the summon spell). Default is OFF.
You can assign all rallying units to the AI. This means that you normally control your units until they rout. Once they rally, they will be controlled by the AI. To enable this function assign a key to "Save Camera Bookmark 5". Default is OFF.
Things to notice
– Each time you press Shift + F9, the AI resets to the currently selected units. You cannot add units to a "preexisting pool" unless you use MCT or the configuration text file. However, you can change your initial selection anytime during the battle.
– If you want to turn off the AI and manually control your units, make sure no unit is selected and hit Shift + F9. You can do this anytime you wish.
– The hotkeys (Shift+F9/F10/F11/F12) replace the bookmark locations 1-4 in keybindings section. You can change them freely though. For more explanation on the controls, please refer to these threads:
FAQ1
FAQ2
– AI General works for all units, lords and heroes and even for reinforcements that arrive after the battle begins. It works both in Campaign and Custom battles. It works for most Quest Battles as well. The AI doesn’t perform well in siege battles, so we recommend you to fight these manually. This mod does not work in intro battles.
