  • 100+ endorsements for DovKroniid Redoubt and Border Forts of Skyrim!!

    Thank you all!

    In honor of over one hundred endorsements, I have upgraded the main file and re-released some of the follower and optional files.

    In the 1.0.3 version of the main DovKroniid Redoubt and Border Forts of Skyrim file, I have made minor adjustments to make the Hoerme Bandits more of a challenge if you have adventurers and travellers - the bandits will most likey survive until you get there! The Boss fight should be a bit more challenging. The Witch Queen boss fight should be a bit more challenging, too!

    Some vanilla locations have nasty surprises, so don't think you know everything :)

    I have moved some assets in Morthal and Falkreath, so the mod is 100% compatible with Expanded Towns and Cities (ETaC) by MissJen...

  • Non-Apachii Sky Hairs (NASH) version to be published Fri 15 Aug

    Several users have requested a version of DovKroniid Redoubt that is not dependent on Apachii Sky Hairs as a Master. Initially I balked, because of the amount of work involved (deletion of master in CK, resetting Vanilla hairs, regenerating facegens, packing (an hour in itself) and publishing the whole shebang).  However,since the mod 1.0.2 version is stable, now is a time I can take the resources to divert for the conversion.

    SO… tomorrow I expect to publish the Main Mod , as well asthe follower files for Freya, Annika, and Arwen as NASH versions (ex. Misc files: 1 – NASH – DovKroniid Redoubt 1.0.2).

    So, like the Apachii version, there are 6 total questsadding @ 30+ hours of play, depending on your play style. The mod now features a main quest line of fo...

  • New Content going up Friday including 2 New Quests!!

    With the addition of these two new quests, there are 6 total quests adding @ 30+ hours of play, depending on your play style. The mod now features a main quest line of four quests, the first of which has 6 distinct stages incorporating vanilla locations, as well as the main redoubt. The mod is fully voice acted and features a fully upgradeable fortress and player home located in central Skyrim.

    It also adds an Inn, functioning Khajiiti caravan systems and depots, 5 fully manned border forts at the five passes to Skyrim. The latest quests involve two of the border forts. One quest takes two entire days in-game to complete, and is a nail biter that will have you constantly on your toes. Many potential followers are included along with numerous leveled enemies and NPCs. See the m...

  • Border Forts Quests to be published soon!

    First Jehanna Pass Fort Quest down and tested pretty well. Adds six hours ( two in-game days) worth of nail biting play!
    Still testing Pale Pass quest one - it is going well and I hope to publish this weekend.

    On the Jehanna quest, I died twice, and my charge died twice -During the first half of the mission (half the journey). Had to save and reload both times. Such a challenge; So much fun!!

    On the second half, I died another three times and Svenja managed to get offed another two times. And this is with Annika, Arwen, Freya, and Rhona as followers! I think that is balance about right for a very challenging playthru!...

  • New Arwen and Annika files for now; more content later

    I am going to upload a new version of followers Arwen and Annika who are woven into the Main Quest line. This should smooth their recruitment if you choose, and should eliminate seeing them before the quest kicks off if you visit the "closed world" of Whiterun early in the game.

    I am testing the very fun follow-on quests involving two to three of the border forts now. Probably at least a week away on those and that will involve a full publish for the main file.

    The new Annika and Arwen files should only affect new games. I don't anticipate any impact on existing games.

  • New content for DovKroniid Redout and Border Forts of Skyrim to come.!!

    I have several hundred downloads now and no one is reporting any remarkable issues! Either that or I have just added so much content that they are not all the way thu the mod.

    Or both!

    I am working on additional content – one to two quests per border fort. I hope to have some of those up later this month. I will advise!

    Anyway – head on over and give the mod a try. If you like combat and adventure – and an upgradable home, too boot, then this may just be the mod for you!

  • DovKroniid Redout and Border Forts of Skyrim is UP!!

    Only took two years, so it must be special!

    Cleaned and spiffy with TESVedit.

    Adds around 20 hours of play (incorporating several Vanilla locations into this).
    Lore friendly and has several component quests. If you DL the associated followers, they have mini-quests or are incorporated into the Main Quest line for the mod. Nobody follows for free!

    Followers are recommended. Handicap is three for the most fun (Your Mileage May Vary).

    Hope you all have as much fun playing it as I did making and testing it.

    Thanks to thumper_abn and prius_of_woodbridge for beta test.

    Let me know if there are any issues - the archive process can be funky!
