No famale warriors

Replacing most of them would arguably be realistic, but not all. The Nords are clearly based on Vikings, and Vikings occasionally had female warriors. Rare, but it happened. And it's always been relatively common in history for females to join groups of outlaws, most notably pirates and thieves, because once social mores break down there's not that much dividing the sexes. Removing all female combatants would be just as unrealistic as making them all female.

 

it would be far more realistic, for example, to leave bandits the same, remove most but not all female Stormcloaks and town guards, and remove all female Imperial legionnaires.

Even then, however, Skyrim is in Tamriel, not Earth. By making half the warriors in Skyrim female, Bethesda confirmed that in Tamriel the same gender divisions don't exist socially. So it would actually be against lore to remove even most female warriors. Not to mention it would make the person who made the mod look a bit sexist.

I have no problem with someone who wants a game with no female warriors ( I don't mind them) However - using the word 'realistic' when referring to a fantasy game where magic is common and dragons roam the sky? :rolleyes: Unrealistic is part of the definition of fantasy. If it was realistic, it would be called historical fiction, with no magic or dragons - and you would probably consider it boring.

 

What you want is definitely not realism, but just a change in the 'not realistic' fantasy game. :tongue:
