LE Imperial Legion Explorer Armor

[UltraElectroMagnetic]

So, I recently finished the Civil War questline as a member of the Imperial Legion. The war is over, and it's time to move on from the life of a soldier and return to independent exploring, adventuring, and questing. In line with this, I wanted to change my armor from an Imperial Scout Officer (I use this mod for my Imperial Legion) to a more adventurer-type getup. I was having some trouble deciding, and realized that I wanted a rugged Skyrim adventurer type armor that still had an Imperial Legion identity to it. I didn't want to throw away my Imperial-themed appearance, but I did not want to look like a Legionnaire/Legionary on active duty.

 

I looked around for an armor mod that gave this, and did not find any. I did find the Stormcloak Explorer armor, which I liked and downloaded for use with my Stormcloak character/s, and also served as the inspiration to write this thread.

 

Pretty much all of the Imperial Legion mods are battle-oriented, which is understandable, since they are an organized army that excels at set-piece/pitched open battles, just like the Roman Legions that they are inspired by. But I would like to see a standalone Imperial Legion armor mod that interprets what a veteran Legion soldier-turned adventurer would look like, preserving his Legion identity while being more rugged and adapted to the challenges of surviving alone in the harsh Skyrim landscape. Alternatively, it could also be seen as what an Imperial Legion Frontiersman or Pathfinder would look like.

 

I am a light armor agility scout rogue type guy, so I definitely think this should be a light armor if ever.

 

Whatever the case, I'd love to see an armor like that. Cheers :smile:

I'd almost forgotten about that armor... I can't believe I missed it while looking. It's actually almost exactly what I'm looking for. Seems a little bare, though a cloak, backpack, weapons, and some bandoliers can fix that ;)
