📋 About This Mod
Spellsword Cuirass By Billyro
Description
This mod adds some new armour called the Spellsword Cuirass. The armour is fully functional, however, there are no low-weight meshes, so the weight slider won't do anything! If anyone wants to make low-weight meshes, be my guest (I've had my fill of attempting it).
The Spellsword Cuirass can be crafted at any forge.
Compatibility
This mod should be compatible with everything.
Installation
Copy the meshes and textures folder to your Skyrim\Data folder. Activate the .esp in the Skyrim launcher. That's it! Alternatively, you can download with NMM and activate it through that.
Permissions
Please don't redistribute this mod. If you wish to use the Spellsword Cuirass in a custom mod, please let me know beforehand.

✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Community-approved with 976 endorsements and 15,925 downloads.
- Supports both male and female characters.
- Fits a specific archetype—spellsword—so it's perfect for that playstyle.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2015—may not work with the latest game version.
- No screenshots or detailed description provided by the author.
- Only one armour piece, so it's a small addition.
For players who want a dedicated armour piece for their spellsword character. If you're playing a battlemage or spellsword and want a thematic cuirass, this is a solid pick. Skip if you're looking for a full armour set or need modern updates.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Check the mod's file structure and place the meshes/textures in your Data folder manually.
