BGASE: Save Editor for Brigandine Abyss

Hey everyone! 👋

If you're a fan of Brigandine: Abyss and have ever felt frustrated because your favorite unit fell behind in levels, or your fort ran out of crucial items — I've got a solution for you!

Introducing BGASE (Brigandine Abyss Save Editor) — a free save editor I built to safely edit Brigandine Abyss save files.

What is BGASE?

BGASE is a desktop application for Windows that lets you edit Brigandine Abyss save files. With BGASE, you can:

  • Level up units that have fallen behind
  • Restock items that have been used up
  • Move forts to a different country
  • Edit stats for units as needed
  • Backup & restore save files with ease

Most importantly: every change is backed up first, so you don't have to worry about losing your campaign progress.

Why Was BGASE Created?

As a Brigandine Abyss player, I often experienced:

  1. Favorite units falling behind in levels — Too many units, hard to focus on leveling all of them
  2. Running out of items mid-campaign — Needed items but had no idea where to get them
  3. Poorly placed forts — Wanted to move a fort but there's no in-game feature for it
  4. Corrupted saves — Save files got corrupted and progress was lost

BGASE was built to solve all of these problems. And most importantly: every change is backed up first, so you can restore at any time.

Key Features

BGASE has 6 screens, each handling a different part of the save file:

1. Units — Muster Roll

Units Screen Image: bgase.antwacode.com

This screen displays the muster roll for each fort — all platoons along with their Command cost, level, experience, HP, MP, and 5 core stats.

You can:

  • View all units at every fort
  • Edit level and experience
  • Change stats (Attack, Defense, Magic, Resistance, Speed)
  • Move units between forts

2. Equipment

Equipment Screen Image: bgase.antwacode.com

This screen displays all equipment in the save file — weapons, armor, and accessories. Each item shows who is currently using it.

You can:

  • View all equipment (spare and equipped)
  • Search by name
  • Edit quantity
  • Move items between units

3. Items — Treasury

You can:

  • Edit the amount of Mel
  • View the current season
  • Update campaign duration

4. Forts — Who Holds What

This screen displays all forts along with the country that controls them, the fort level, and the next upgrade cost.

You can:

  • View all forts and their owners
  • Move a fort to a different country
  • Edit fort level

5. Backups

Backups Screen Image: bgase.antwacode.com

This screen displays all available backups. Every time you edit a save, BGASE automatically creates a new backup.

You can:

  • View all backups (dated copies)
  • Restore a backup with a single click
  • Create a manual backup before major edits

6. Campaign

This screen displays overall campaign info — an overview of everything you've edited.

Safety First: Backup System

This is the most important feature in BGASE:

┌─────────────────────────────────────────────┐
│  Before editing:                            │
│  1. Read the save file                      │
│  2. Create a backup (dated copy)            │
│  3. Display the changes to be made          │
│  4. Ask for confirmation                    │
│                                             │
│  After editing:                             │
│  1. Write only the changed fields           │
│  2. Other fields remain untouched           │
│  3. Backup saved in a separate folder       │
└─────────────────────────────────────────────┘

What makes BGASE safe:

  • Backup before write — Every edit is backed up first
  • Selective write — Only changed fields are written, everything else stays intact
  • Restore capability — You can restore from a backup at any time
  • Dated copies — Backups are timestamped for easy identification

Conclusion

BGASE is a safe, free, and open-source save editor for Brigandine Abyss. With its backup-before-write feature, you can edit save files without worrying about losing your progress.

If you're a Brigandine Abyss player in need of a save editor, give BGASE a try! 🎮
