for Morrowind Modding Madness 2019!

Requirements:

Morrowind, Tribunal, and Bloodmoon

Requires a new game if you've already begun building your stronghold before installing the mod.

* Updating from a previous version or installing mid-playthrough may cause issues. We recommend cleaning and repairing your save.

Description:

Great House Hlaalu has risen to unprecedented political power towards the end of the 3rd Era, so don't they DESERVE a nicer Stronghold than the tiny cluster of buildings that they were given? We thought so, and set out to make Rethan Manor a place worthy of the Great House Hlaalu.

Version History:

New in v1. 1

- Fixed some floating rocks and plants

- Re-landscaped the cliffs to remove the texture stretching and make them look better and more natural

- Redesigned the upper level of Rethan Manor. The display area was redundant since we had added a vault to your offices already. There is now a luxurious guest apartment on the upper floor.

- Other updates to the Manor. Can you find the secret passage and discover where it leads?

- A new multipart quest involving your egg mine that makes miner housing and a warehouse available. Continue to grow and improve your stronghold!

In v1. 0, we've focused on expanding and improving the settlement itself. We have added 6 additional buildings, and completely redesigned the Manor itself. The Odai Plateau has been re-landscaped and expanded to make room for the larger settlement, and we tried to make it a beautiful location, as well as a convenient one. Enjoy the spectacular view from your Hlaalu Stronghold overlooking lovely waterfalls and a scenic river. We have also added a road connecting Rethan Manor to Hla Oad, and raised the bridge that was blocking the mouth of the Odai, opening the way to the sea for skiffs and rowboats. There is also a lovely new dock offering boat service to several towns. We created several new NPCs with unique dialogue who offer various services as well. There are a few other surprises in store, so we hope that you enjoy the mod!
