Hello all. This is my first official mod request, so forgive me if there are any mistakes in making this suggestion. I've been playing the latest Assassin's Creed game lately which, for those of you who don't know (or have been living in the wilderness) is set in colonial America during the revolutionary war. Watching and playing this game inspired me to pick up another that I had set down awhile back, Mount and Blade: With Fire and Sword. Before this recent jump into the colonial era I had pretty much no interest in muskets/cavalry/Napoleonic type themes but the new upgrades to the Musket Mod by Ghosu have started me wondering on what a colonial experience in Skyrim might be like. I was a little surprised to see that there were no clothing or armor mods to accompany this new addition of firearms (including Mikloud's Flintlock Pistol which is a ton of fun). While Hothtrooper44's Seadog Armor fits pretty well for the pirate look, I was hoping that someone would come along and create a colonial era soldier/hunter/militia uniform. Before anyone says anything, I know this is completely lore-unfriendly, I'm just putting this out there for those out there who appreciate messing around with the freedom skyrim offers us. Anyway, here are some examples of what I'm envisioning... http://www.withfireandswordgame.com/sites/default/files/cart4.jpg I like the breeches and boots type look on these guys...plus who doesn't love a good tricorne hat? Nobody, that's who. http://www.napolun.com/mirror/napoleonistyka.atspace.com/img/french_armor.jpg Heavy armor options? http://www.watermelon-kid.com/family/images/Washington-colonial.jpg Boom. This guy is dressed like a badass. Now can you imagine your Khajiit in these digs? It's musket time. http://www.napolun.com/mirror/napoleonistyka.atspace.com/img/wirtembergian_troops_napoleonic_wars.jpg http://www.gloversregiment.org/images/uniforms.jpg Pretty much completely captures what I'm going for. http://www.cowanauctions.com/itemImages/taa2507.jpg JaySus swords has a lot of good swords to go with this concept, and the musket mod now has bayonets to complete the image, but I'll just throw this one in just in case. So, in closing, I'll just say that this can go two ways. In its simplest form this idea can be just a standalone armor/clothing set. The most ambitious this could go would be strapping every guard and NPC out there with a musket, a sword, and a random colonial outfit and going crazy. I realize that there's pretty much no modder out there that would do all that work but a boy can dream, can't he? Thanks for your time.
