This mod replaces the light armor town guard cuirasses with the heavy cuirasses from Mixxa77's Heavy Townguard Cuirasses mod; guards who have heavy cuirasses will also have steel armor instead of the usual chainmail. Affected guards include all Skingrad guards and all guard captains (Bittneld the Curse-Bringer, Burd, Caelia Draconis, Danus Artellian, Decentius Opsius, Dion, Garrus Darelliun, Langley, Savlian Matius, Ulrich Leland, Viera Lerus).

This mod doesn't contain any assets of its own, so it requires the mod above. This mod makes the cuirasses playable and adds them to the guards' inventories. The inventory icons are reused from the vanilla cuirasses. The original resource doesn't have separate models for females, so they use the same models as males.

The new cuirasses are slightly worse than Dwarven armor, similar to the original light cuirasses being slightly worse than chainmail.

This mod inherits changes made by the Unofficial Oblivion Patch and thus requires it. Will conflict with mods that alter town guards, and will not change guards added by other mods.

Compatibility Patches for:
Cyrodiil Re-Loaded (formerly Oblivion Uncut)

English (main)
German/Deutsch (tentative)

(I don't know exactly how translations work in Oblivion, but the item names are translated, and NPC names are reverted to the target language's original.)

I always thought it as odd that Skingrad guards had steel boots and such, but still used light armor cuirasses. When I found Mixxa77's modder resource, I decided to make and release my first mod.
