📋 About This Mod
Hold guards do not change armor during the Civil War.
Also available for XBox One and PlayStation.
This mod restores hold guards' original armor replaced by Stormcloak and Imperial Soldiers during the Civil War. The guards will also retain their title. If Stormcloaks win the Civil War, Solitude and Haafingar Guards that normally wear Imperial Bracers and Imperial Boots will switch to Fur Boots and no gauntlets, the same as other guards that wear scaled vest armor. As normal, guards from a hold with Imperial allegiance have Imperial Bow and Imperial Sword equipped, while guards with Stormcloak allegiance are equipped with a Hunting Bow and Iron or Steel weapons that can be either one-handed or two-handed.
The .esp files have been flagged as ESL mods. ESL mods do not count towards the 255 mod limit.
The FOMOD installation includes a patch for Fishing (Creation Club or 1. 6. 0+).
