Making roads unsafe

[sage1700]

Hi all,

 

I've been playing oblivion for a while, downloading mods every now and then and i was just looking to see if there was a mod that made the roads a bit more unsafe to travel on, and to my surprise i couldn't find one. I am no modder and wouldnt have a clue how to do this, so i'm asking you if someone would make a mod to put more enemies on the roads. i don't go through the wilderness alot and thats why i want this mod.

 

thanks,

Sage

Here is a mod where there are great numbers of bandits on the roads that attack travelers all at once in a big group:

 

Smarter Bandits

 

Here is a mod where there are vampires on the roads after dark:

 

Vampire Hunting - Order of the Virtuous Blood

I highly recommend David Brasher's Smarter Bandits mod there. :D It's very good and my roads are pretty exciting now. You never know if you'll run into a big bandit group (it seems there's usually at least 1 group per main road, and the side roads have them too). Kuertee's Wandering Encounters is also pretty awesome. You'll find groups of all kinds of generic stuff (including wolves, bears, etc., as long as they have some intelligence) wandering around the roads and sometimes trying to get into a city or a roadside inn. There was 2 large bandit groups (from smarter bandits) that were wandering (because of wandering encounters) near Weynon Priory, just as I was about to do the quest there, and I was only level 3. It was intense! I had to hide and sneak around them because there was just too many for me to fight (I tried!).

 

The "overhaul" mods that add spawns in the wilderness are also good. I get some special monsters added by Francesco's mod on my roads now, once in a while. Just be careful with installing them and follow any instructions and advice given, and make backup saves of course in case you decide to uninstall.
