The "Credo - Medieval Skyrim Overhaul" project is an armor replacement mod for faction- and guard armors. The goal of the mod was to create a more Medieval, yet immersive feeling to the game. It affects the guards of all the holds aswell as the Imperial and Stormcloak factions. It will also aim to replace various other vanilla armors aswell.
All known bugs should be fixed at the moment, so you shouldn't worry about game instability.
The following armors have been replaced by new meshes and textures: - Hold guards - Stormcloaks (Soldiers, officers and Ulfric Stormcloak ) - Imperials (Soldiers, Penitus Oculatus and General Tullius) -Ebony (Actus' Dark Coat of Plates) -Steel (Actus Silver Coat of Plates, 2 lightly different meshes) -Leather
Please give Kudos to every person on the Credits, they all deserved it
