📋 About This Mod

Armored Troll and Co. Mounts and Followers

version 3. 0. The DLC Dawnguard is required

Optional file: Esp version Française

"Armored Troll" allow you to summon Armored Troll, Armored Kong, Spectral Trolls, Spectral Kong, Trolls, Frost Troll, Gehenoth Mounts and (-simple-) Followers wherever you want.

You can easily DISMISS when you want with a "Spell tome:Dismiss Summoned Troll"

You can find the 2 Companions/Followers (Armored Troll and Gehenoth) in the Markath Stable

To access in Vvardenfell (Morrowind) and Cyrodiil (Oblivion) with these mounts you have the 2 mods WIP: SKYWIND and SKYBLIVION

INSTALLATION (very important)

Only for the manual installation:

1) You have to put the folder « Data » in "... Steam/SteamApps/common/skyrim "

For the manual and the NMM installations:

2) You must place the new .esp at the bottom of the list in the "Data Files" when you launch the game to obtain the 12 books...(Normally, this is done automatically !)

3) (Only if you have download other mods "Summon...") You must INSTALL the summons (my other mods "summon") ONE BY ONE ! (ALL my mods are STANDALONE !)

You can find the “Spell tome: Summon XXXX” and the "Spell tome:Dismiss Summoned Troll" at Farengar Secret-Fire in Dragonsreach/Fort Dragon (Whiterun/Blancherive) or with an other Spell Vendor (ex: Sybille Stentor in the Blue Palace/Palais Bleu in Solitude).

Duration of the summon: 1 hour (15' for the spectral mounts)

4) You can put in your Skyrim.ini ( user / my documents / my games / Skyrim ) the following settings (you can copy / paste the following):

fVanityModeMaxDist=2000. 0000

fVanityModeMinDist=10. 0000

fMouseWheelZoomMinDelta=0. 0050

fMouseWheelZoomSpeed=0. 8000

fMouseWheelZoomIncrement=0. 01

fMinCurrentZoom=0. 001

These settings allow you to see all mounts (of my mods) correctly, whether your character takes his weapon out or not

Bugs or Problems

1) You can only have one Follower at a time: if you want a different one (in my other mods), you need to dismiss the first one before you recruit them.

If telling the follower to return at home (With message: “Your companion heads home”) doesn't dismiss him, or if you have "lost" the “active” Follower, you can try this:

Type “²” key to get into console, and type:

set playeranimalcount to 0

2) With Amazing Follower Tweaks by Dheuster , or other mod with followers, if problem to dismiss the followers,

🤖 AI-enhanced — based on mod data

This Skyrim mod lets you summon armored trolls and variants like Kong, Spectral Troll, and Gehenoth as mounts or followers anywhere. Requires Dawnguard DLC. A niche utility for troll fans, with 116 endorsements and last updated in 2015.

✨ Key Features

Summon armored trolls and variants (Kong, Spectral Troll, Gehenoth) as mounts or followers.
Summon creatures anywhere in the game world.
Requires Dawnguard DLC.
Includes multiple troll types: regular, frost, spectral, and Gehenoth.

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Unique twist on mounts—trolls aren't the usual horse or dragon.
  • Summon anywhere means no hunting for a stable or waiting for fast travel.
  • 116 endorsements from a niche audience shows it has its fans.

⚠️ Cons

  • Last updated in 2015—may have compatibility issues with current Skyrim versions or mod setups.
  • Requires Dawnguard DLC, so it's useless if you don't own that expansion.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim players who want a quirky alternative to standard mounts and enjoy having a tanky troll companion. If you're a completionist collecting unique followers, this adds some variety. Skip if you prefer lore-friendly or polished content—this is a dated mod with limited support.
📦 Install:Easy· Under 1 minute

💡 Beginner Tips

  • Since it's an older mod, place it low in your load order to avoid conflicts with other creature mods.
  • Use the summon spell in a safe area first to see how the troll behaves before taking it into combat.
  • If you're using a mod manager, make sure Dawnguard is active and loaded before this mod.
