📋 About This Mod

With this modification you can combine your unarmed attacks. You can hit, hit and then kick and hit again. Or you can just kick, kick and kick or hit. The unarmed combat will be much funnier and looks a lot better.
I changed the power attacks of unarmed combat to different kind of kicks. This mod changes the left arm power attack, right arm power attack and the power attack with both hands.

More information about my mods:
Unarmed Warfare replaces Skyrim's default hand-to-hand combat animations with a more varied moveset, allowing players to chain punches and kicks for visually improved brawling. It's a popular animation overhaul with over 11,000 endorsements, though it hasn't been updated since 2014.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge community trust: 11,633 endorsements and 264k downloads show this mod is a proven favorite.
- Simple concept, big impact: turns boring fistfights into flashy combos without changing gameplay balance.
- Lightweight animation replacer—no new mechanics to learn, just cooler moves.
⚠️ Cons
- Last updated in 2014—likely incompatible with Skyrim Special Edition or Anniversary Edition without tweaks.
- Only affects player animations; NPCs and creatures still use vanilla punches.
For Skyrim players who love brawling and want their unarmed fights to look more dynamic without overhauling combat mechanics. Perfect for punch-cat builds or anyone tired of the same two default punches. Skip if you're on Special Edition or want gameplay changes—this is purely cosmetic animation work.
💡 Beginner Tips
- If you're on Skyrim Special Edition, check if the mod has a port or use a mod manager to convert it—original files are for Oldrim only.
- Load this mod after other animation overhauls to ensure its punches and kicks take priority.
- Test in a brawl (like in Riften) to see the new combos in action before committing to a playthrough.
