Abstract
----------
After beating the Main Quest, like many, I became disillusioned with the Dragon Armor. It was quite frankly, lousy. Getting a mod to change the AR was one thing, but I thought it should be something special.

Hence, I created this mod for my own use. It's in competition with a lot of others, but I tried to keep it small and simple. I know there are a lot of other Imperial Dragon mods out there, but here's hoping that this appeals to a few people at least. I'd like to think that this mod isn't -completely- outmoded and outdated.

Yes, it -does- powergame somewhat. But what was that, that Chancellor Ocato said? "Only six other Champions have been awarded in the history of the Empire", and "Imperial Dragon armor is normally worn only by the Emperor himself. But you deserve no less, Champion."

So why does the default armour have less durability than chainmail and an armour rating equivilent to mithril?

I think that the Dragon Armour is an excuse to powergame a little. You just saved Tamriel, for gods' sake, and you get this suit of lousy, fragile armour? I don't think so. This is armour befitting an Emperor, just like Ocato said.

I've left the gauntlets and boots unenchanted so you can add whatever enchantments you wish, to customize and tailor the armour to your needs, rather than provide multiple variants or useless enchantments like "Resist Poison"...when my character is an Argonian.

And yes, I -am- Canadian. ARMOUR!
