Sasquatchewan Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 I've always had an interest in Viking/Norman/Anglo Saxon arms, armour and warfare, and have downloaded a few mods to make my Nord look a bit more like a 10th/11th century warrior. The chainmail cuirass that comes standard with Oblivion is not bad, but the small metal plates that reinforce the front and back aren't that historical (perhaps for Russia, India or the Ottoman Turks), and sleeves to the elbow would be better. Just curious if anyone has made a mod to address something like this, I've looked around a bit and haven't found anything. Thanks in advance!

Thanks very much, this armour: http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/images/2...-1234775678.jpg looks like exactly what I'm after, if it only had a skirt like the in-game hauberk. I've only just started modding though, and don't really know what to do with these resources. Thanks again for your help though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChalkLine Posted May 24, 2009 Share Posted May 24, 2009 It's got a terrible name, but I use the chaindress for this. It's a horseman's hauberk that looks good on both male and female models. http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/images/3178-1-1198732413.jpg It comes the closest I've seen to hanging right in a mod so far. Don't forget, the maille in game is based on Russian maille and so would be perfect for a Varangian-style Nord. I do hope you've gone and got yourself some Nord Realswords! http://www.tesnexus.com/downloads/images/23150-1-1237035152.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The shape of the original "vanilla" armour is fine, I was just hoping someone had fuzzed out all the plates. Doesn't look like there's anything out there, as I get deeper into modding I guess I'll have to try it. The Nord Realswords look great, I hadn't found those, thanks. I downloaded the Beowulf Sword mod, it's a beautiful weapon and I'm greatly enjoying it. Thanks for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wasder Posted May 25, 2009 Share Posted May 25, 2009 Xifr's Plain Surcoats is ok. It's like guard cuirasses but plain. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
