About this mod

Adds three sets of equipment forged in the Imperial style.

Requirements
Permissions and credits
In Morrowind, the player could join the Imperial Legion and rise in its ranks, acquiring prestigious titles like Knight Errant, Knight Bachelor and Knight Protector. The player also got awarded armor pieces that set them apart from the common soldiers. This mod draws inspiration from the armor worn by high-ranking Imperial officers in Vvanderfell, and adds three sets of equipment forged in the Imperial style.

IMPORTANT: This mod requires the Dragonborn DLC.

Features:

- Each equipment set consists of six helmets, one cuirass, one pair of boots, two pairs of bracers, a shield, a sword, a dagger, a warhammer, a bow, and arrows. Beast races are supported, though they get only four styles of helmet.

- The equipment can be obtained in three different ways; you can craft it if you have the appropriate perks, you can buy it from Beirand, the smith in Solitude, or you can steal it from the equipment locker in Castle Dour.

- The Knight Protector items have the same stats as their Ebony counterparts. They can be crafted if you have the Ebony Smithing perk.

- The Knight Bachelor items have the same stats as Glass equipment. They can be crafted if you have the Glass Smithing perk.

- The Imperial Spymaster items have the same stats as Knight Bachelor equipment, but are slightly lighter. They can be crafted if you have the Glass Smithing perk.


Installation:

The mod installer will offer you the following options:

- Resolution - 2k vs 1k textures. The 1k version has a number of textures at a lower resolution, but the loss of quality is minimal.

- Color - Blue vs Red. This affects the color of the cloth parts on the cuirasses, and the plumes on the helmets.

- Pants or no pants. Add pants to the cuirasses to protect your privates from the elements, or go commando if you like to live dangerously.

- Plugin. The default version allows you to craft, buy or steal the equipment. The Legion Issue version equips high-ranking Imperial Legion and Penitus Oculatus officers with weapons and armor from this mod. The Replacer version changes the Imperial Legion equipment to use the models from this mod (all items retain their original stats, though officers will use the original version of the items).





Acknowledgments:

This mod uses assets made by several other modders. I thank them for allowing me to use their creations in my mod:

- Four of the helmets, the sword and one of the bracer variants were taken from "Roman Imperial armor and weapons" by Jedo_Dre.
- One of the helmets is from "JoO Imperial Praetorian" by xxxNEOxxx.
- Some boot and bracer textures are based on files from "aMidianBorn Imperial Light and Studded" by CaBaL120.
- The shield is a retexture of "The Imperial Legion" by johnskyrim.
- The pants are from "Imperial Warm Armors" by gezegond.
- The dagger is from "Roman Dagger"  by kukatsuo.
- The bow is from "Real Bows" by DecimusMaximus.
- The arrows and quiver are from "3 Medieval Arrows" by jet4571.

I would like to thank pixelgamerch for showcasing my mod on this Youtube channel.

Many thanks also go to Homercide for creating a FOMOD installer for this file.
