Skyrim Special Edition

About this mod

New Imperial Armors, scale, chainmail, tunics, etc.

Permissions and credits
This mod aims to equip the Imperial Legion in a way inspired by the Late Roman and Early Byzantine Armies. Heavy infantry will wear scale armor, medium tier troops will use chainmail, and the light infantry will wear tunics. A spear is also included. It does not replace the vanilla armors, instead it replaced the armors the Imperials use. For those who want the armor, but don't want the Imperials to use it; use Blacksmith Edition and craft the armors for yourself. Quartermaster Edition will re-outfit the Imperials with the new armor. Both .esp files are in the download so you can easily choose which one you want to use at any time. Should support all 10 races both male and female! Possibly minor clipping with the four Elven races. Possible clipping with East Empire female variant. Tunics are now light armor; I explain this in the following lore friendly way: Ancestor Moth Silk. I've also introduced some new armor into the new version, see below. Still supports males and females of all 10 races.
