📋 About This Mod

This mod adds to the game 3 different weapons (dagger, sword and greatsword) and 3 shields with different painting (Legion, Stormcloak, Dawnguard) more paintings will be available if requested. The shields are "heavy armor". The weapons have the same stats as the vanilla skyforge steel weapons. Only the greatsword has increased attack speed of 0. 80 (or something like that but I think its 0. 80). They can be crafted at the forge (steel smithing perk is req.)

And can also be obtained from merchants (blacksmiths). The items have also been added to the leveled list (the weapons can be obtained from bandits.

Now about the shields theoretically they have been added to the leveled lists of their relevant  NPCs, however I practically haven't seen the shields be use or be in the inventory of the relevant NPCs (Legionaries, Stormcloak troops or Dawnguard). If anyone has any idea on how I can make this work please leave a comment or PM me.

There are 2 different texture sets Noble (The metal parts except for the blades are with gold textures) and Soldier (The metal parts are steel). Custom sets can be made by copping the relevant MeshName_D, N and EM.dds files and pasting them inside the textures folder.

2K textures are on their way. They will be uploaded within 24 hours starting from now.

Use a mod manager (recommended) or manually unpack the archive and drop the folder into your main Skyrim folder (e.g. C:\Program Files\Steam\Steamapps\Common\Skyrim SE\)

📊 Pros & Cons

✅ Pros

  • Solid download-to-endorsement ratio (22k downloads, 51 endorsements) — people are grabbing it, even if they're not all leaving feedback.
  • ESL flagged means it's a no-brainer for load order space — won't eat a plugin slot.
  • Covers three major factions, so you can match your character's allegiance.

⚠️ Cons

  • Only 51 endorsements — it's a niche pick, not a community favorite.
  • Last updated in 2021, so it might not be actively maintained for newer Skyrim versions.
  • Limited content: 3 weapons and 3 shields, so if you want variety, this is just a small drop in the bucket.
🎯 Is This For You?
For Skyrim players who want a bit of faction-themed gear without a huge overhaul. If you're role-playing a Legion, Stormcloak, or Dawnguard character, this adds some matching equipment. Skip if you're looking for a massive weapon pack — this is a small, focused addition.
