The mod contains the following Two-handed animations:

Requirement

  • []None. (No need to run fnis/nemesis, as this replaces vanilla animations)

    Recommended

    • []Leviathan Animations - Two-Handed High Stance LE while not necessary, the attacks have been made to blend perfectly with this mod.

      []Project New Reign - Nemesis PCEA or any alternative if you want to make the animations affect the player character only.

      Installation

      • []Use any mod manager or manually copy the content from this mod's 'Data' into your Skyrim SE 'Data' folder.

        Disclaimer: As is the case with my previous mods, while grounded, historical accuracy and realism are not the intent of my animations, nor do I claim that they are. The animations are simply made according to my personal taste which is inevitably skewed by video games I played in the past.

        If you happen to share the same preferences that I do, then I'm happy for you!
