📋 About This Mod
Did you ever feel like Fort Dawnguard was... abandoned.. and.. manned by WAY to few people to actiually fend off any attacks from the ALL POWERFULL VAMPIRES shudder. NOTE: The mod has been updated to version 1. 1 I added around 10-14 new guards named \" Dawnguard Soldier\" through out the fort, some will stand guard, some will patrol and others are sandboxing day and night! More fortifications have as well been added, and they will spawn as you progress with the Dawnguard Quest! The castle is also a bit more cleaned up as it should be, i have never seen such a messy military operation before in my life! Install: Just put the esp in your Data folder, and thats it! Report any issues to me and i shall do my best to patch them Requirement: Dawnguard DLC is required.
